With this sonata cycle, Daniel Barenboim has set himself a legacy! The box includes 234 mins Bonus: a 42-minutes interview with Daniel Brenboim on Beethoven and 3 masterclasses with Daniel Barenboim, working with students of the Barenboim-Said Academy feat. Alexandre Kantorow (winner of the 1st price and gold medal at the Tschaikowsky Competition, working on Sonata No. 2), Nathalia Milstein on Sonata No. 15 “Pastoral” and Fabian Müller on Sonata No. 23 “Appassionata”).
“No matter how many times you play them there are always freshpersonal perspectives waiting to be discovered.” Daniel Barenboim

![Janácek: Jenufa from Staatsoper Unter den Linden
Camilla Nylund, Evelyn Herlitzius, Stuart Skelton, Ladislav Elgr, Hanna Schwarz, Staatsopernchor
Staatskapelle Berlin, conducted by Simon Rattle
staged by Damiano Michieletto
Jenufa is still Janácek’s most successful and most often performed opera, and the Berlin premiere at the Staatsoper in 1924 brought the work its final breakthrough on German stages. This performance from Berlin’s Staatsoper Unter den Linden is “artistically unsurpassable. There are three reasons for this. Firstly, the cast [...], secondly: the direction [...], thirdly: Simon Rattle, the Staatskapelle and the chorus of the Staatsoper” (BR Klassik). “Simon Rattle revs up the Staatskapelle Berlin with a passion as if he had to fill a melodrama by Giacomo Puccini with bursting sound life” (Süddeutsche Zeitung). “A beguiling mixture of speaking articulation and tonal roundness.” (Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung)
