Yet the 1st 2 CDs were of sensational quality, now we have to consider the recording of sonatas 16, 17 & 18 as superior. Mari Kodama masters the balance of head & heart so every note, every measure appears plausible & genuine. Plus her talent to let Beethoven’s music pulsate & ‘swing’, so that the listener directly participates in the musical event. In the slow movements of sonatas 16 & 17 great sincerity prevails which Kodama avails herself for musical introspection. Sonata 18 ‘The Hunt’ lives on incomparable agility & a powerful yet beautiful & shaded keystrokes, making this Beethoven unique. Mari Kodama is on the way to present a modern, timeless recording of Beethoven’s piano sonatas which can claim the title reference recording already now.” (Pizzicato, August 2006) Tracks: Piano Sonata No. 16 in G, Op. 31, No. 1 01 Allegro vivace Listen 02 Adagio grazioso 03 Rondo allegretto Piano Sonata No. 17 in D minor, Op. 31, No. 2 Tempest 04 Largo Allegro 05 Adagio 06 Allegretto Piano Sonata No. 18 in E flat, Op. 31, No. 3 The Hunt 07 Allegro 08 Scherzo (Allegretto vivace) 09 Menuetto (Moderato e grazioso) 10 Presto con fuoco ** zebedee ** http://www.filefactory.com/folder/c8a6a9222cade4a0 -------------------------------------------------------------- Checksum for iso: 6ecf999d20dc600b7822c0bc94311310 *Mari Kodama - Beethoven Piano Sonatas 16,17,18.iso Checksums for flac tracks Mch: d8fb0fc81e9a24cff5f6d6f165a50fdd *01 - Mari Kodama - Allegro vivace - Piano Sonata No. 16 in G, Op. 31, No. 1.flac 42a3ebd156df6263d3fb9c0ff354d19e *02 - Mari Kodama - Adagio grazioso - Piano Sonata No. 16 in G, Op. 31, No. 1.flac f6cc6ac4dd37ee4edffb763bfa805bab *03 - Mari Kodama - Rondo allegretto - Piano Sonata No. 16 in G, Op. 31, No. 1.flac ed0517ee3e01afb58b5ff54d7dfd7f57 *04 - Mari Kodama - Largo - Allegro - Piano Sonata No. 17 in D minor, Op. 31, N.flac 054be66e4d17f808baf7328cfe6d9acd *05 - Mari Kodama - Adagio - Piano Sonata No. 17 in D minor, Op. 31, No. 2 Tem.flac d233dc857284afafea6e9db766accccd *06 - Mari Kodama - Allegretto - Piano Sonata No. 17 in D minor, Op. 31, No. 2.flac fdfba4aa0387f2ef560727f415fd0371 *07 - Mari Kodama - Allegro - Piano Sonata No. 18 in E flat, Op. 31, No. 3 The.flac 43aeb96411b60626307a594d68149edf *08 - Mari Kodama - Scherzo (Allegretto vivace) - Piano Sonata No. 18 in E flat.flac aa8e972ad7d9474533bf1c328c95c366 *09 - Mari Kodama - Menuetto (Moderato e grazioso) - Piano Sonata No. 18 in E f.flac e764a872884423d520e14bdb981a8ae7 *10 - Mari Kodama - Presto con fuoco - Piano Sonata No. 18 in E flat, Op. 31, N.flac Checksums for flac tracks 2ch: f4e50a4925b2d4ff1ad4f9db0650da5e *01 - Mari Kodama - Allegro vivace - Piano Sonata No. 16 in G, Op. 31, No. 1.flac a629219a56f36e6375554adc0a30f4ed *02 - Mari Kodama - Adagio grazioso - Piano Sonata No. 16 in G, Op. 31, No. 1.flac 9a33d34b4a3b648354ca02751c1f7212 *03 - Mari Kodama - Rondo allegretto - Piano Sonata No. 16 in G, Op. 31, No. 1.flac 45e300052f7056e308f9b32e935a93d0 *04 - Mari Kodama - Largo - Allegro - Piano Sonata No. 17 in D minor, Op. 31, N.flac ff71c47a53ede988acc96b0b0602544c *05 - Mari Kodama - Adagio - Piano Sonata No. 17 in D minor, Op. 31, No. 2 Tem.flac 1a1cdc80fd3ade53b3378aa8b8b2233c *06 - Mari Kodama - Allegretto - Piano Sonata No. 17 in D minor, Op. 31, No. 2.flac 830e249ff8783144ab1f97c06460fda0 *07 - Mari Kodama - Allegro - Piano Sonata No. 18 in E flat, Op. 31, No. 3 The.flac 2a5fcc8a7f23dab1ce918a78ce43d7ab *08 - Mari Kodama - Scherzo (Allegretto vivace) - Piano Sonata No. 18 in E flat.flac 28bc31ad94fe4c3db91303f36badcd15 *09 - Mari Kodama - Menuetto (Moderato e grazioso) - Piano Sonata No. 18 in E f.flac f569ffaed46a4eadc1126655e1c8f2c9 *10 - Mari Kodama - Presto con fuoco - Piano Sonata No. 18 in E flat, Op. 31, N.flac
