What are you listening 2 now?

Qobuz does not name anyone on the cover as the performer of the entire set. The performers listed for each sonata:

1, 4, 7, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 21, 24, 25, 26, 27, 29 - Dubravka Tomsic.
2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 18, 19, 20, 22, 28, 32 - Graig Sheppard.
8 - Sviatoslav Richter.
17, 23 - Herbert Wald.
30 - Karl Ulrich Schnabel.
31 - Glenn Gould.

Indeed, I have seen this. However, if you examine the link I shared, you'll notice it's a different complete set, with all the sonatas attributed to Tomsic. This is the source of my confusion. I question the information and suspect that many of the sonatas are mistakenly or perhaps even fraudulently attributed to Tomsic.

Good stuff.

Thanks. It is undisputed that Tomsic is an existent pianist with excellent recordings, including Beethoven's Waldstein Sonata and his First Piano Concerto. However, it appears that she has been mistakenly credited with some recordings she did not make.

It also says in the first line: Dubravka Tomsic & Ludwig van Beethoven. Did you see it? What should be  concluded? That they performed the "Moonlight" sonata together? Or maybe they did compose it together? Apparently Amazon music is not the most reliable source of information on serious music releases.

If you know who recorded Op. 106 in this set instead of Dubravka Tomsic, please tell. I'd appreciate it.

So it appears, indeed, but she's no Joyce Hatto. The fault lies entirely with those obscure labels who released them God knows how legally, releases that she might not even be aware of.

Perhaps Todd, having listened to at least 150 different recordings of the Hammerklavier Sonata, might state the identity of the shadow pianist or pianists.

I haven't heard the recording - wasn't aware of it until you mentioned it - so I have no idea. I do not intend to download it as it is mp3 only.

Was Joyce Hatto aware of the recordings released in her name by her husband's obscure label?

In fact, not so. Amazon music states only her name as performer, but there is nothing like this on the cover of the box published by obscure label. I also saw similar inaccuracies on Qobuz. Christophe Coin's splendid set of Bach's cantatas is listed under the name of one of the vocalists, etc.

Ask Todd, that's your doubt. And before that doubt becomes a certainty, let me consider Dubravka Tomsic a performer .

First encounter with Holbrooke's music. I'm positively impressed.

That's a nice Holbrooke disc, although generally I prefer his chamber music.

Okay, then it's a fault shared by the label and Amazon Music.

It's admittedly a mess but I doubt this a new Hatto case in the making.

Op. 106

It's admittedly a mess but I doubt this a new Hatto case in the making.

Indeed, even on a smaller scale, the readiness to make faulty attributions, whether intentional or not, for commercial purposes persists.

OK, consider my doubt for what it is.

Op. 106

A wonderful mild and poetic interpretation IMO, one of my faves for this sonaata.

Could you help me to see the name of Dubravka Tomsic on the cover of the box, published by the label?

Whether the attribution is on the cover or elsewhere makes no difference.

Actually, what label is that, anyway? Neither the cover you originally posted nor the one on the Amazon Music, which is different, do not identify it. I googled the cover you posted and the only exact match was on Deezer but when I clicked the link, I got this:

https://www.deezer.com/en/album/7177744

So, we have two different covers with no clearly specified label or performer(s) and Amazon Music claiming it's an all-Dubravka Tomsic recording. As I said, a complete mess.
