Daniel Barenboim’s performance of Beethoven’s Piano Sonata No. 9 in E major, Op. 14 No. 1, is something truly special. His dynamic control and tempo sensitivity bring clarity and subtle drama to the modest three-movement structure. He maintains superb touch, rhythmic clarity, and an ability to shape phrasing with natural inevitability. Every gesture is deliberate, without excess, and always superbly clean finger work. Barenboim channels a lifetime with Beethoven in this masterful performance.
