Beethoven chose to introduce himself to the music world with his first three Trios, which ... more
he published as his Op. 1, despite Haydn's advice that some of the music was too radical for the public to accept. These works are in no way immature. They show the young composer fully formed, perhaps not the profound creator of the late Quartets but already writing great music. This disc, vividly performed and splendidly recorded, is a painless way, both for your ears and for your bank balance, to make or renew your acquaintance with the music. --Leslie Gerber

Advantages: dynamic and gripping Disadvantages: none
Fantastic to have another additional collection of all five of Beethoven's piano concerti. Spanning his life we can really get to grips with his evolving use of the orchestra in these works. From the Third's action packed finale to the Fourth's beautiful expressions to the grandeur of the much loved Fifth.
The playing is precise, dramatic and full of energy; as indeed it should be.
Aimard's playing is always well crafted and beautifully shaped. This is an insightful disk and has taken the musicians an awful lot of hard work. A must-have for any lover of Beethoven's piano music.

Well worth buying and indeed an inspiration for myself and other pianists alike. ...
Advantages: A new way to hear Beethoven Disadvantages: Surpassed by some later period cycles
others with its depiction of a trio of birds, a village band and a thunderstorm.
The Seventh brought a completely new emphasis on the use of rhythm, something that had never been heard of before at this scale, while the Eighth proved that little is sometimes more with its witty and humor-filled attitude completely off-setting the greater Seventh. And finally there came the Ninth Symphony that not only out-scaled the Eroica, but also introduced human voices in a symphony. The addition of a chorus and soloists in a profoundly instrumental work would be much explored by the Romantics that followed. In essence and deed, Beethoven was one of the greatest (if not THE greatest) influences in the way music evolved through the Classical era to the Romantic. And, of course, his influence also effected many other genres like piano sonatas, chamber ...
Advantages: Excellent physcological study of character. Disadvantages: Grim, brutal, shocking scenes of a sexual nature.

Graphic in it's content this film delves into the darker side of sex, including fetishism, bondage, and sado/masochism. It also touches
on the delicate subject of genitalia self harm. This is not a light film, and is not recommended for family viewing. ~
