“In the age when overt showmanship reaps big rewards and grabs lots of attention, the Brazilian pianist Nelson Freire offers a gentle reminder that decorous piano playing and interpretive depth have an irresistible power all their own.”
- The New York Times
“Few pianists alive convey the sheer joy and exhilaration of being masters of their craft more vividly and uncomplicatedly than Nelson Freire.”
- The Guardian
This solo release sees renowned Brazilian pianist Nelson Freire perform an all-Brahms programme. Marking 50 years since he first recorded the Piano Sonata No. 3 in F Minor in 1967, Freire reimagines this monumental work here, pairing it with a number of intermezzi and the famous Waltz in A Flat, proving that he is at the height of his interpretive powers.
