Fazıl Say – Beethoven: Piano Sonata No. 23 in F Minor, Op. 57, "Appassionata": I. Allegro assai

The "Appassionata" is among the most famous of Beethoven's 32 piano sonatas and, according to Fazıl, "the most powerful work of Beethoven’s middle period ... Composed in Vienna in 1804–06, it can be considered to mark the beginning of the Romantic period due to its innovations in piano technique and its embracing of romanticism. Dedicated to Count Franz von Brunswick, this work in F minor is for many reasons one of the masterpieces of history."
