Work: Piano Sonata no. 28 in A major, Op.101

In Goode’s performance, Beethoven’s sonata appeared equidistant from the music of Bach and Schumann that preceded and followed it in the programme. 

On top of all his skill and eloquence throughout, Rafał Blechacz still sounded born to play Chopin.

Intimacy mixes with grandeur in Beethoven playing of rare authority in Berlin.
