Del rag, del jazz, del rock: Beethoven.

"Sólo alguien en el completo silencio pudo haber creado ese sonido."

Maurizio Pollini - 1973 - LIVE in London - Beethoven - Op. 111
Beethoven : Piano Sonata No. 32 In C Minor, Op. 111 - 2. Arietta: Adagio Molto Semplice E Cantabile

RARE live recording. This a friend of mine was sending me many years ago. It was my first (and maybe the most amazing ever) Pollini playing Beethoven. record.
I THINK THIS IS ROCKandROLL ! It is not played perfect, many other great Pianist were playing it, but not that youth raw power and high intelligent energy, this is how beethoven would play it after a time travelling down into his own life´s earlier years !
I know some critical people will say: This is bad, it is not good, he was too young to play it wise... But I think it is GREAT !!
I got later recordings from pollini playing op111 but i always choose THIS ONE , i cannot stop listening to it.... :-)
Just my words to it...I thought that I lost this record, but I found it again. Here it is !
