Following his highly acclaimed Beethoven ‘Moonlight’,\n‘Pathétique’ and ‘Waldstein’ Sonatas release, Hyperion’s\nGramophone-award-winning artist Steven Osborne turns his talents to\nBeethoven’s complete Bagatelles. Though the composer himself\nreferred to these thirty short piano works, which he penned\nthroughout his life, as ‘trifles’, these are nonetheless trifles\nfrom the mind of a genius. In this polished album, Osborne lends\nhis remarkable artistry to everything from the Six Bagatelles of Op\n126, which at times occupy the same rarefied spiritual world as the\nlate quartets and were the very last works Beethoven ever wrote for\nthe piano, to the composer’s most famous stand-alone piano piece,\nthe mysterious little A minor Bagatelle known to all the world as\n‘Für Elise’.
