I always seem to neglect Barenboim and Pollini when I'm recommending
recordings for the piano sonatas, but both pianists do a great job. In
particular, my favorite Hammerklavier comes from Pollini. He might be
short on mystery and contemplation, but his interpretations are very
incisive and the recorded sound is perfect.
