Augen. He made several Beethoven recordings, including the Piano Sonatas Nos. 18 and 21 ("Waldstein"), and the "Spring" Sonata for violin and piano (with Andreas Weißgerber). A selection of Chopin pieces were recorded in the 1910s and 1920s, with études, polonaises and waltzes represented. Perhaps surprisingly, his teacher Liszt is not strongly represented among d'Albert's recordings, though he committed "Au bord d'une source" from Années de pèlerinage (1st year) to disc in 1916. Brahms, Mozart, Schubert and Weber also feature in his discography. As a composer, d'Albert has been more widely represented on record in recent years than previously. Some modern recordings include: Piano Concertos No. 1 in B minor, Op. 2, and No. 2 in E major, Op. 12 Piers Lane/BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra/Alun Francis Joseph Banowetz/ Moscow Symphony Orchestra/ Dmitry Yablonsky String Quartets No. 1 in A minor, Op. 7, and No. 2 in E-flat, Op. 11 Sarastro Quartet Piano Sonata in F-sharp minor, Op. 10; Klavierstücke, Op. 16; Heft 1 and Heft 2, Serenata and Capriolen Fünf schlichte Klavierstücke Piers Lane Tiefland Éva Marton; René Kollo; Bernd Weikl; Kurt Moll; Münchner Rundfunkorchester/Marek Janowski Margherita Kenney; Waldemar Kmentt; Otto Wiener; Vienna Symphony Orchestra/ F.
