Why This CD Matters
This volume brings together Beethoven’s final three piano sonatas: Nos. 30, 31, and 32. John O’Conor’s performance moves from the intricate variations of Op. 109 to the fugue in Op. 110 and the expansive Arietta of Op. 111. Together, the works show Beethoven pushing the piano sonata toward a more personal and experimental style.
