Beethoven: Bagatelles
Sep 13th, 2012 by dcronin
“A bagatelle is a short, light composition, generally considered to be of little substance, yet the bagatelles of Ludwig van Beethoven are usually placed among his most sophisticated and elusive compositions, even though he called them ‘trifles.’ …The playing throughout is alert and exciting, and Osborne gives the music a mixture of wit and seriousness that keeps the interpretations fresh.” –All Music Guide
