Обложка альбома «Beethoven: Pathétique & Moonlight Sonatas» — Emil Gilels

Written at the end of the 18th century, Beethoven’s <i>Piano Sonata No. 8</i> carries the nickname “Pathétique”, one given it by its publisher but apparently with the composer’s blessing. Its mood is dramatic and full of incident, though the form—in three movements—is classical and in the mould of Mozart or Haydn. Emil Gilels made his recording in 1980, and his patrician balance of beautifully gauged tone, tempo and phrasing is totally winning. He’s not a flashy player and the sobriety of his approach makes the central “Adagio cantabile” a real hymn. The finale is delicate and elegant.
