By the time Beethoven came to compose the last three of his 32 piano sonatas, written, he said, "in a single breath" and conceived as a unified whole, he was almost completely deaf. Dense and complex, these innovative works, marking indelibly his farewell to the genre, pose many challenges, which are taken up here with mastery by Fabrizio Chiovetta. Les opus 109, 110 et 110 constituent les dernières œuvres pour piano de Beethoven. Fabrizio Chiovetta explore ici l'« adieu à la sonate » d'un Beethoven alors devenu presque sourd, entre furieux éclats et ultime apaisement : à son crépuscule, le compositeur se montre plus libre que jamais.
