YUNDI makes his return to Universal and DG conquering new grounds with his first ever Beethoven recording. The album focuses on the composer’s most beloved and romantic piano works, the three name sonatas Moonlight, Pathétique and AppassionataAfter winning the 2000 Warsaw Chopin competition Yundi immediately established himself among the leading pianists of his generation.Rising to outstanding stardom in his native China (where he has performed in TV shows watched by hundreds of millions of people, together with stars like Kylie Minogue) he has maintained his dedication to the classical world.
“The warmth of the colouring, the recording too, certainly makes this Beethoven recital — Yundi’s first — different from the norm. Even when the music indicates something granitic, our pianist still stands on velvet. Drama and impetuosity abound in the first movement of the Pathétique” The Times
