"Canadian pianist Stewart Goodyear’s Beethoven concerto cycle of 2020 was met with huge critical acclaim. This September will see a very special, limited production vinyl release for Beethoven’s final, and arguably greatest piano concerto, the Emperor. Praise for Goodyear’s concerto cycle on original release: “Goodyear… is a pianist of tremendous clarity and precision. He has a beautiful, silver sound, with perfectly lucid trills that must be the envy of his colleagues.” Patrick Rucker, Gramophone “Would this deep obsession give his Complete Beethoven Piano Concertos edge or distinction in a crowded market? Yes. The results are fleet-fingered, insightful and imaginative, capturing an essential sense of improvisation in the cadenzas…” Fiona Maddocks, The Guardian"
