About

Beatrice Rana, characterised by Gramophone as a pianist of “fire and poetry, imagination and originality, temperament and charm, all on top of fearless technical address”, brings together two monumental sonatas: Beethoven’s Hammerklavier Piano Sonata (No. 29) and Chopin’s Piano Sonata No. 2 in B♭minor, Op. 35, famous for its third movement, the Funeral March.

these interpretations hold interest for Rana’s strong personality, her obvious and sincere engagement with these works and her willingness to take risks in pursuit of the music behind the notes. I may not agree with everything Rana does, but I believe her.
