Beethoven and Wilhelm Kempff
Kempff playing four of Beethoven's late Piano Sonatas, No. 25 in G major op. 79 (1809), No. 26 in E flat major op. 81 "Les Adieux" (1809-10), No. 27 in E minor op. 90 (1814). Kempff recorded three complete cycles of Beethoven's 32 piano sonatas in three eras of recording technology: on shellac between 1926 and 1945, on both shellac and mono LPs between 1951-1956, and in stereo in the '60s. These mono recordings were made in 1951. [click here to download]
