This complilation © 2007 by EMI Records Ltd. Playing disc no.16 of 17 x cd box-set

 

This Brahms sonata no.2 in F Op.99 is an earlier version to the one on disc 15...

I seem to prefer this earlier version, sounds more aggresive where need be, more punchy, plucky, and better recording to boot. Barenboim's piano is not so distant, the right hand keys often sound a shade too plinky plonky on the 1968 recording.
