Lewis: 00:00 - Mvt 1 10:45 - Mvt 2 17:58 - Mvt 3 20:32 - Mvt 4 Biss: 26:05 - Mvt 1 35:59 - Mvt 2 42:26 - Mvt 3 44:53 - Mvt 4 Lewis takes a warm, richly lyrical approach to this sonata, smoothing away some of its sharper edges and adopting generally broad tempi: the result is a compellingly rhapsodic, tranquil interpretation, the sort of thing you can close your eyes and let yourself sink into (though in the development of the first movement and portions of the last there is real dramatic sweep). Biss has a more jaunty approach: the sfzs in the first movement assert themselves a bit more, the melodies are less expansive and more vocal; the second movement seems almost like a march; and while some pianists (like Lewis) ignore the microscopic slurs at 42:30, and some articulate them as actual slurs (Bavouzet and Barenboim, Goode very subtly), Biss instead shortens the first beat of each bar to wonderful humorous effect (note also the surprising changes of timbre in the Trio). And in the last movement he brings a wonderful translucency to contrapuntal passages, such as at 46:43, and pays scrupulous attention to B.'s instructions re articulation and dynamics.

One other thing about the sonata I didn't have the space to mention in the description: there's some motivic cleverness going on in here, centered around two archetypal "Pastoral" devices: the repeated note, and the 5th. Repeated notes: The first movement has the repeated Ds in the bass, the second has repeated Ds in the RH at 11:16, the third opens with four repeated notes, and the last movement has that drone alternating between a D and a rising dominant-tonic movement. 5ths: The first movement's first theme features a falling 5th (A to D), as does the second movement's (after an initial D). The Trio of the third movement repeats a melody that basically outlines a F# to B fall, and the RH in the last movement enters with an embellished A to D descent in its upper voice (not to mention the falling A to D in the LH which opens the movement.)

The differences in tempo chosen by different pianists are amazing, especially in the first two movements. In the first movmente Lewis and Lortie are very slow (10:45) but Gilels is even slower (12:11). For me this doesn't sound cheerful/lively (i.e. Allegro) anymore. Pollini is too fast making the fast notes blurred (as is more often the case with Pollini). Biss offers the best "compromise". However Biss is too fast in the 2nd movement (6:25): it's like B is in a hurry and wants to end the "promenade" asap. Again Lewis and Lortie are slower (7:10), Pollini a little bit slower (7:22) but Gilels is again very slow (8:38). This starts sounding not like loving nature but being bored by nature. With Lortie B seems to hesitate constantly where to go. So my favs are Lewis and Pollini. This shows how difficult it is to find one pianist whose interpretations are your favorites for all or most sonatas.

This is wildly inaccurate, he quite often uses a minor key for second movements: op 2 no 3, op 10 no. 2, op 14 no. 1, op 79, op 81a, op 109 I would also make a case for op. 26, op 101, op 106 and op 110, because the order of middle movements are reversed (the slow movements come after the scherzo). For this reason i also havent included op 27 no. 1, because while the second movement is in the minor key, it is in fact the scherzo movement

And THAT Andante, DAMN. I don't really know what it evokes for me .. maybe the slow and aristocratic walk of a great landowner around his mansion back in the countryside.. Pastorale sonata, also, might be one of the MOST balanced sonata.

I do not agree with everything that you say - BUT - you always say something of value and often of rare insight. I have played many of the Beethoven sonatas, but have always considered this one to be one of the more light-weight, so have never been tempted to perform it . Not any more! I love these performances, both of which were unknown to me - and I have about a dozen complete sets! Lewis uses a bit too much pedal for my liking - or is it the fault of my computer's audio(?) - but he brings out so many truly wonderful moments that I had overlooked in my cursorily playing through the piece. For me, this is the true value of your site - re-educating me regarding works that I had under-estimated for half a century!! You have my infinite gratitude for that.

If you get the chance to reach out to the publishers of the score, you might want to tell them that the measure numbers in the first movement should be incremented by not just one, but two. The first measure comes before the repeat, but it is in a metrically strong position and is not a pickup measure. Correctly, then, measure 5 is measure 7. The theme’s repetition in measures 9ff. confirms that it in fact begins on the downbeat, and that the measure harmonized as G major is the third measure.
