Boris Giltburg has set out to study and film all of Beethoven’s 32 piano
sonatas by the end of 2020. The project started as a personal exploration,
driven by curiosity and his strong love of the Beethoven sonatas. These
performances display Giltburg’s customary spirit and technical finesse,
and also convey the electric atmosphere of the live recording. Volumes
1–4 can be heard on Naxos 9.70307–10.
