The Complete Beethoven5.0 out of 5 stars An amazing Beethoven collection at about $1.10 per CD
Reviewed in the United States on July 20, 2022
The Warner Classics Beethoven edition, released in 2020 for the 250th anniversary of Beethoven’s birth in 1770, has been on the market for over 2 years. I have read mixed reviews but decided to buy it in July, 2022 upon the strength of the 9 Symphonies by Nicolas Harnoncourt/Chamber Orchestra of Europe; the 32 Piano Sonatas by Stephen Kovacevich (EMI originals); the 5 piano concertos by Andras Schiff/Bernard Haitink/ Dresden Staatskapelle; King Stephen incidental music by Myun Whun Chung/St Cecelia Academy; Leonore Prohaska by Claudio Abbado/Berlin Philharmonic; and many others - 80 CDs of (mostly) digital Beethoven recordings (perhaps 10% are stereo analog from the 1960s/70s). There are many unusual short works of the great Bonn born composer in this edition.
The Symphonies, played by a chamber orchestra using modern instruments may lack the weight of the Berlin Philharmonic under Karajan or Vienna Philharmonic under Bohm but they are excellent just the same. The box, about 13 inches long and 5 feet inches wide, accommodates 80 CDs and a booklet in a minimum of space.
As a collector of Classical CDs since 1986 and my very first being Beethoven Symphonies 1 and 2 by Karajan/Berlin Philharmonic (DG, rec. 1984) I used to like cherry picking recordings by great conductor/orchestra teams. While the Warner Beethoven edition is one stop shopping, you won’t go wrong with it! The CDs I have sampled are uniformly excellent and one could build a great library of Beethoven recordings with this Warner box + the Symphonies by Szell/Cleveland (Sony) or Bohm/Vienna (DG) for example. One might wish to add Piano Sonata recordings of Gilels, Brendel, Pollini, Arrau, Horowitz or Rubinstein for more variety with the Kovacevich featured here. Recommended!
