What a extraordinary Maestro Claudio Arrau. It's a pity he has not better diffusion through youtube. I'm convinced if we organize a contest with actual better pianist, maestro Arrau will gain it. When I listen his performances I feel like is hands fly through the keyboard, so fluent and armonious. Besides he was so humble focused to play according the authors, not making a circus of his presentations. BRAVO MAESTRO ARRAU, you're incomparable.

Great posting, thank you very much

Does anyone know if the "jazzy" tone at 23:05 is a mistake, or intended by Beethoven?

[@markswanson549]

Totally! The last 3 sonatas have fugal elements that are pre jazz like.

[@TgTedus]

@@markswanson549 soo it was intended by Beethoven?
