v. ashkenazy- london- the big 3 beethoven sonatas. just a terrific beethoven/mozart/chopin etc. player. saw him once. never missed a beat for 2 hrs by himself. totally effortless- makes it look so easy.
Thanks everyone, for your excellent recommendations! I spent a large portion of today at Amazon researching each one and had a blast doing it. One thing I can't figure out - why is the Goode so polarizing? It seems some people love it and others can't stand it. In any case, I couldn't pick just one so I ordered the Kempff 32 sonata set on DG and the Ashkenazy popular sonatas on London for a different perspective.
