Extractions: The Beethoven piano sonatas-of all the master's works is the music that in Schnabel's famous phrase-is greater than can ever be played-on this side of the mortal divide at least.I have owned this set for quite a while and on the whole it is very satisfying-especially in the early sonatas-as the opus numbers go up the adrenalin level seems to drop and I feel Goode loses his way near the end of the cycle.However even the early sonatas are fraught with danger and Goode does great things here. All said the greatest (ongoing) cycle I've heard which really unleashes Beethoven to my mind is by Stephen Kovacevich on EMI-this is very special indeed and every other pianist pales into insignificance in comparison (with the exception of Gilels late Sonatas on DG).In comparison to Kovacevich Goode seems well mellow!Overall I feel Goode is more interested in the architecture of these pieces rather than their emotional content which is where Kovacevich excels.There are times though when Kovacevich could be better recorded. My advice for a cycle is to start collecting Kovacevich.
