Pianist Éric Heidsieck’s Erato and HMV recordings made little headway outside of his native France, with the possible exception of his late 1960s/early 1970s Beethoven sonata cycle reissued as part of EMI’s 50-CD budget-priced Collector’s Edition issued in 2007, plus his highly acclaimed Beethoven and Fauré collaborations with cellist Paul Tortelier.

If I were picking a bunch of the piano sonatas, I'd include the wonderful trio of Op. 31; Les Adieux; and all of the late sonatas (Op. 101, 106, 109, 110, 111), which are all special in their own ways. Pianists to consider: Peter Serkin's traversal of the late sonatas on a not-very-good fortepiano is musically spectacular; Kovacevich is profound, the French pianist Eric Heidsieck restrained and elegant. But there are tons of good to great performances of these! For the string quartets, the Harp, Op. 74, and the first Rasumovsky, Op. 59, No. 1. For operas, nothing. Fidelio has some great moments and some substantial dramatic problems.
