I’m glad you liked them. I have four different versions and this is the most engaging one at every level.
I’ve heard the sonatas but I canny believe I don’t have a single purchased version! Will need to rectify. Thanks for the recommendation
I continue to find the Cuarteto Quiroga’s recordings immensely rewarding. I’ve been traversing their six albums on Cobra Records in anticipation of writing about why I enjoy them so much. An article will be coming in PF before too long. Tom Peeters tells me a new album is in the works. Can’t wait!
On a different note… largest organ in Europe! 7000 stops.
Hope it sounds good. 
Always great to discover performances that have been missed along the way. Stumbled onto Gilels’ recording of the Hammerklavier sonata the other day. Where have you been all my life? 
This Trondheimsolistine Mozart recordings were my 1st 24/192 FLAC purchase. As I upgraded interconnects, power cords, DACs, the reproduction would improve with each change. 
Here’s a couple of classical recordings I’ve purchased and enjoyed lately. I seek 4xDSD versions. My native DSD membership, for an annual fee, allows me to download any lower resolution versions of the recording, but purchase the highest once. The annual fee comes with subscriber discounts (15%) on top other promotions.
I heard Emil Gilels perform the Hammerklavier sonata on a sunny Sunday afternoon in February 1984 at The Festival Hall in London. It was a remarkable performance, quite unique. He also played some Scriabin, but I can still see and almost hear that performance in my mind almost 40 years later.
Very cool!
I but a lot of DSD256 as well. But I couldn’t justify a native DSD membership for USD90. If you get 15% off, up have to buy around USD750 of music per year. That a lot.
Am I missing something?
Yes, what you are missing in your equation is the cost of lower resolution files that are included. So if I download the DSD 256 version, I don’t pay to download the DSD 128 version. DSD 128 is the limit on my bedroom DAC.
I know, math can be tricky.
Listening to the pinnacle of chamber music… The great op. 130 with the Große Fuge. The entire universe and the meaning of human life and its place In the universe in a composition.
In think the Schubert cello quintet (two violins, two cellos, and a viola) is the only one that comes close and even maybe matches it. I had the pleasure of playing the Schubert last year (first violin) at a chamber music workshop— it was sublime, fun, and a sh*t load of work. As my professional violinist son said, that’s a lot of notes!
Writing this is making me queue the Schubert next…
I am delighted each time I listen to this album. I am entranced by the superb musicianship, and I am in awe of a performing group that can so compellingly well interpret and present music of composers across five centuries with such broadly varying musical traditions (in their various albums for Cobra Records, of which this is the sixth).
