| “ | Thrilling performances on period instruments. First things first: I am a period instrument enthusiast who enjoys historically informed performances. That being said, I usually prefer classical recordings that use a modern piano rather than fortepiano for obvious reasons. At times, Beethoven seems to have intuited that the fortepiano would soon be improved upon and wrote music for this soon-to-be instrument.
So, I was hesitant to get this recording, but took a chance due to my high regard for Anner Bylsma. Wow! I was thrilled from the start of the "Archduke" and this joy continued through the ending Presto of the "Ghost". The recorded sound is brilliant and the sound of the fortepiano did not dissapoint me in the least. In fact, this is my absolute favorite recording of the "Archduke" I've ever heard. Very highly recommended!!!
