{"product_id":"chopin-sonata-no-2-etudes-barcarolle","title":"Chopin: Sonata No. 2 \/ Etudes \/ Barcarolle","description":"Amazon.com\n\nIf you've ever presumed Chopin was a miniaturist whose music is to be played daintily you are wrong, and this CD is living proof. The Sonata No. 2 is a grand work and Freire treats it as such. He creates great tension in the first movement and delivers; his \"scherzo\" is filled with tempi tricks that all somehow cohere as he fearlessly leaps all over the keyboard, and the finale, a harmonic puzzle of sorts, makes excellent sense with all of the melodic lines given equal strength. The Barcarolle is more ferocious than we're used to but it's still a valid reading, and the Etudes are, indeed, perfect studies, offering a superb student's eye view of each. Highly Recommended. --Robert Levine\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0007ZEO8W\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B0007ZEO8W.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Chopin|Nelson Freire\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio cd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
