This special 4-CD set features the music of Glenn Gould, who between 1966 and 1974 paid repeated visits to Columbia’s New York studio to record the Piano Sonatas of Mozart.

Often revelatory, sometimes quirky, but always stimulating, these controversial readings tell us as much about the performer’s own endlessly fascinating musical mind and his conflicting attitudes to Mozart as they do about the composer’s genius at the keyboard. But no other classical sonatas – not even Beethoven’s – were paid the tribute of an integral recording by Glenn Gould. His delight in playing them can be heard throughout this set.

Sony Classical is now reissuing the 18 Sonatas and two Fantasias in a remastered 4-CD box.

This is the 22nd series of box sets within the Sony Classical Masters Series (197 sets have been released so far). The volumes distinctively feature excellent repertoire and restore many titles back to the active catalogue. They are presented in a striking design, offered at a highly competitive price.
