Here is a little-known version which has very good quality: the dynamic play of the two partners is remarkable. The contrast, the nuances and the sound rebounds, the beauty of the instrumentalists' timbres, the great technical mastery of these two Beethoven specialists. Everything comes together to make this version that breathes life (as refreshing as a cool drink in the middle of summer) a reference. 🔊 FOLLOW US on SPOTIFY (Profil: CMRR) : spoti.fi/3016eVr 🔊 Download CMRR's recordings in High fidelity audio (QOBUZ) : bit.ly/2M1Eop2 ❤️ If you like CM//RR content, please consider membership at our Patreon page.

This is fantastic! Beethoven was way ahead of his time - and has quoted both Händel, whom he admired deeply and plays with Mozart (papageno aria). I suppose, he found Mozarts melody light and fresh - and Glucks touching "Dance of the spirits": super poetic. Here and there he was very modern - and even crossed the border of year 1900! Once I heard Sokolov play one of Beethovens bagatelles and was stunned - thought: 1913! Well - that was how far Beethoven went.....like if he prophesized what was to come. That is why his last quartets are often referred to as "mad quartets", which I have with the Emerson Quartet.. I thought of early 1900-composers, when I heard them. At 38,9 I even sense a slight bit Schubertian....and some Mendelssohnian here and there. I never thought, that Beethoven would be easy enough on himself to allow himself to quote others, he admired.....but evidently he saw their lasting qualities and knew, what was to come. He probably had a good time writing this - and who wouldn´t want good times for him? He suffered greatly.....so..

Lebhafte und wunderschöne Interpretation dieser perfekt komponierten Sonaten und Variationen im relativ schnellen Tempo mit mildem Ton des unvergleichlichen Cellos und klarem Klang des genialen Klaviers. Der intime und perfekt entsprechende Dialog zwischen den beiden Virtuosen ist wahrlich ergreifend. Alles ist wunderbar!

This, surely, desreves a Century Recording appelation. The acoustic, given your engineering magic brings this recordng to life unimaginable in the pre-digital age. OK there are probably other great recodings of these sonatas, but surely this must be among the best. Thank you as always for your wonderful catalogue.

I have never heard anything this "playful" written by Beethoven. I am quite convinced, that he must have enjoyed himself while he was writing these works.

Les sonates pour violoncelle et piano de Beethoven comptent parmi mes œuvres de musique de chambre préférés du compositeur. En revanche je reconnais que je n'aurais pas choisi cette version, mais plutôt Fournier et Gulda ou Richter et Rostropovich. Merci pour vos vidéos et qualité.

귀한 녹음 올려주신 분께 감사드립니다

Such complete unabashed sprit and commitment is what I needed on this day also Who plays today with such unapologetic romanticism ? These works shine in the heart.Thank you, from mine.

I found this to be an extraordinary performance...perhaps the best even compared with those of the renowned virtuosos...plus the rarely heard variations...what a bonus...thanks for uploading

Thank you for these. Very beautiful.

I know this great interpretation but the sound you manage to re-discover is just phenomenal. Thank you so much.

I’m so grateful for these masterpieces - the 3rd especially, with its intense vigor, is my best solace in hard times. Thank you so much! 😊

While Tortelier is a fairly well-established name, Heidsieck is long overdue for recognition and praise for his contribution to the Beethoven discography (and beyond). Wonderful chemistry between these two, and a bright clear acoustic complemented by such lyrical playing and exchanges.

Great! Thank you!!!!!!

아름다운 연주 좋은 녹음~ 잘들었습니다~ 고맙습니다~~

I thought that I already had one of the best renditions, but this one puts mine to shame 😱Thanks.

Che dolcezza,l'inizio!

Precious !!!

Les somptuosités splendides de la terre.

Surely, the Beethoven’s inspiring muse drink from Hippocrene water when that giant of art removed from his music the continuous, in the light of Romanticism, a new period that he had to just created. In the radical change that Beethoven decided to make in its music, had in mind, a new way for the chamber works he composed following, more directed to the solo instrument with accompaniment to the fortepiano (Hammerklavier) in a totally innovative concept of the classical duos by Mozart and Haydn, like the Duo for cello “obbligato” opus 5, numbers 1 and 2, that he wrote, dedicated, and played for the entire European nobility with Duport, the cellist of Napoleon Bonaparte, playing his 1711 Stradivarius being this, perhaps the very first and true duo in music history.

GROSSZÜGGIG !!! Tepper Michael.

La música se escucha con el corazón para sentirla

Here we meet Beethovens lighter, softer sides.
