Charles Rosen recorded for various companies, some now defunct. His 1960s set of late Beethoven sonatas on Sony is still one of the best. He recorded other Beethoven, Schumann, Chopin, Haydn, Liszt; and 20C music by Stravinsky, Webern, Boulez and Carter. His book "The Classical Style" is a standard text. He has written several other books, especially on the romantic era; and he has a PhD in French literature. I think he is now retired. Regards -- Don Cox [log in to unmask]
