Product Description Three years after the release of the first volume, Andr s Schiff's highly acclaimed Beethoven cycle is now complete. Review "There is no other pianist on the major recording scene currently bringing such a new and refreshing perspective to these pillars of the repertoire." -- International Record Review From the Artist One of the gratifying discoveries arising out of this chronological procedure is that it becomes obvious that the lesser known sonatas are quite unjustly overshadowed by their famous companions, and also that the popular favourites make still greater effect when they are heard in the surroundings of their immediate contemporaries. The audience values this mutual experience and learning-process during the long journey, and that's why it's so important to think of the ideal listeners - the companions who accompany us all the way through. About the Artist András Schiff was born in Budapest, Hungary, in 1953 and started piano lessons at the age of five with Elisabeth Vadász. Subsequently he continued his musical studies at the Ferenc Liszt Academy with Professor Pál Kadosa, György Kurtág and Ferenc Rados, and in London with George Malcolm. Recitals and special cycles, i.e. the major keyboard works of J.S. Bach, Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Chopin, Schumann and Bartók form an important part of his activities. In 2004, he began a series of performances in Europe exploring the 32 Beethoven piano sonatas in chronological order - a project recorded live for ECM New Series, to be released in eight volumes though 2008. The Beethoven Sonata Project in its entirety continues this season at New York's Carnegie Hall, Los Angeles's Disney Hall, San Francisco's Symphony Hall, and Ann Arbor's Hill Auditorium. Individual recitals are also slated for Chicago, North Carolina, Ottawa, Philadelphia, Princeton and Washington, DC. In 1999, Mr. Schiff created his own chamber orchestra, the Cappella Andrea Barca, for a seven-year series of the complete Mozart piano concertos, taking place at the Mozartwoche of the Internationale Stiftung Mozarteum in Salzburg. The group, consisting of international soloists, chamber musicians and close friends, toured North America during the 2005-2006 and 2006-2007 seasons in a series of concerts at Carnegie Hall and Alice Tully Hall to commemorate the 250th anniversary of Mozart's birth. The six concerts included twelve of the Mozart piano concerti, chamber music and symphonies. András Schiff has annual engagements with the Philharmonia Orchestra, London, and the Chamber Orchestra of Europe as conductor and soloist. He is a regular visitor as conductor and soloist with the Philadelphia Orchestra, Los Angeles Philharmonic, National Symphony Orchestra, Staatskapelle Dresden, Budapest Festival Orchestra and City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra. He has conducted Bach's B Minor Mass and Haydn's Creation with the London Philharmonia and was conductor and soloist with the Chamber Orchestra of Europe on a critically acclaimed tour of New York, Chicago and San Francisco. Since childhood he has enjoyed playing chamber music and from 1989 until 1998 was Artistic Director of the internationally highly praised "Musiktage Mondsee" chamber music festival near Salzburg. In 1995, together with Heinz Holliger, he founded the "Ittinger Pfingstkonzerte" in Kartause Ittingen, Switzerland.

In the 2007-2008 season he was Pianist in Residence of the Berlin Philharmonic. Mr. Schiff has established a prolific discography, including recordings for Teldec (1994-1997), London/Decca (1981-1994) and, since 1997, ECM New Series. Recordings for ECM include the complete solo piano music of Beethoven and Janáček, a solo disc of Schumann piano pieces and his second recording of the Bach Goldberg Variations. He has received several international recording awards, including two Grammy Awards for "Best Classical Instrumental Soloist (Without Orchestra)" for the Bach English Suites, and "Best Vocal Recording" for Schubert's Schwanengesang with tenor Peter Schreier, and, for the 49th annual Grammy Awards, was nominated for "Best Classical Album (Without Orchestra)" for the second volume of his Complete Beethoven Sontata recordings for ECM.

In October 2007, Mr. Schiff was honored by the Royal Academy of Music with the institution's prestigious Bach Prize, sponsored by the Kohn foundation; the annual prize is awarded to an individual who has made an outstanding contribution to the performance and/or scholarly study of the music of Johann Sebastian Bach.

In the course of the next few years there will be a joint edition of Mozart's Piano Concertos in their original version to which Mr Schiff is contributing to the piano parts, the fingerings and the cadenzas where the original cadenzas are missing. In addition, in 2007 both volumes of Bach's "Well Tempered Klavier" were edited in the Henle original text with fingerings by Mr Schiff.
