Anton Kuerti (piano)About
Kuerti has recorded all the Beethoven concertos and sonatas, the Brahms and Schumann concertos, and all the Schubert sonatas, among many other releases.
A critic for ‘Fanfare’ wrote simply that “Kuerti is the best pianist currently playing”; CD Review (London) called him “one of the truly great pianists of this century”.
Piano Sonata No.2 in G minor, Op.22
The version heard on this recording has been assembled by Anton Kuerti, to include (as an added movement) the original last movement, which the composer scrapped in response to complaints by his beloved, Clara Wieck, that it was much too difficult! This splendid movement was eventually published posthumously in 1866 as a separate piece, ‘Presto fur Pianoforte’.
