Bloch, Vol. 10 - Acht Sonaten

Bloch, Boris

The long-awaited Beethoven year has turned out different from what everyone expected. The major project of Nike Wagner, artistic director of the Beethoven Festival in Bonn, has also had to be postponed for a year. It was to include amongst other things all of Beethoven's symphonies in the piano version by Franz Liszt, and Boris Bloch would have been involved in this project. And yet for many People Beethoven is omnipresent, and not only in 2020, but every year, indeed every day. Boris Bloch’s real work and passion for Beethoven began in New York City, after meeting his fellow student, the German pianist Michael Korstick, who is rated by critics as an outstanding Beethoven interpreter, his repertoire encompassing all of Beethoven's sonatas and concertos. It was he who sparked Bloch’s true love for Beethoven and defined his understanding of his style and spirit. On this double album recording Boris Bloch presents various works by Beethoven, including the Moonlight Sonata and the "Storm Sonata" in D minor.
