"… a fine recital, and the most impressive instalment so far in Brautigam's Beethoven cycle. The warm-sounding reproduction Graf piano from around 1819 has been very well recorded." BBC Music Magazine, November 2009 *****
Volume 7 in Brautigam's series features a pinnacle of the piano repertoire, the monumental Hammerklavier Sonata. Once more he gives his listeners the opportunity to revisit a well-known work, and experience it in a fresh light, as a result of the clarity and distinctive timbre of Brautigam's chosen instrument, and his superb, but never self-serving technical command of it.
