在最初的两张舒伯特录音获得成功之后,Lewis又转向了另一个他老师擅长的领域——贝多芬。在2005年到2008年间,HMF分四卷发行了他的32首贝多芬奏鸣曲全集,并最终于2009年发行了这套合集。虽然我还没有仔仔细细的听他每一首的演奏,但仅就我听过的那些而言,这绝对是一套近年少有的杰出贝多芬奏鸣曲演绎。尤其是他对贝多芬晚期奏鸣曲的演绎,给我留下的很深的印象。比方说在第三十一奏鸣曲的赋格中,他的那种温暖的处理带给了我对这首作品新的体验。
国外的评论对他的这套贝多芬奏鸣曲录音也充满溢美之词。
BBC对此的评价有:“As always, Paul Lewis offers playing of rare insight and intelligence.” “…appropriately enough this final volume ends with the last sonata triptych of Opp. 109-111. Lewis plays all three works with characteristic warmth and beauty of tone, and you're not likely to hear them more sensitively and intelligently done.”
留声机的评价有:“Somehow, Lewis's quiet and distinctive voice can lift even the most familiar phrase on to another sphere.”Of all the modern versions of the sonatas, Lewis's is surely the most eloquent and persuasive. And, as in previous issues, Harmonia Mundi's sound is of demonstration quality.”
