Wiki bio : https://nl.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniël_Wayenberg
Plays the work as if it were the “ Waldstein” mixed with Weber. Sui generis , certainly a different, non-reverent , non-“death” view of this Sonata. Under 37 minutes.

A translation of the Wiki article :
"Wayenberg was born in Paris. He was the son of a Dutch ANP journalist and the Jewish-Russian violinist, Margarete Berson . After a few weeks, the family moved to The Hague. Wayenberg came into contact with music at a young age. His mother discovered that he had an absolute audience and decided to make him a musician . He didn't go to school: he got lessons at home to give his piano talent a chance. First he was taught by his mother, then by Ary Verhaar , Dutch composer, theorist and musician in The Hague . After the Second World War he moved to family in Paris to complete his studies with Marguerite Long (1874-1966). Since then he has continued to live in Paris.
He won first prize in Paris in 1949 at the Marguerite Long - Jacques Thibaud international competition. In 1962 he was awarded the Order of Orange-Nassau for his merits for the Netherlands abroad and in 1967 he received the Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres award in France.
After his American debut in 1953, at the Carnegie Hall in New York, with the New York Philharmonic led by Dimitri Mitropoulos , Wayenberg made several extensive tours through the United States and Canada . He also made tours in the then Soviet Union , Czechoslovakia , Scandinavia and Greece . In 1954 he debuted in the Royal Concertgebouw . Wayenberg collaborated with Karl Böhm , Bernard Haitink , Eugen Jochum , Kirill Kondrashin , Rafael Kubelik and Igor Markevich .
After 1975, he also became famous in the Netherlands for his jazz concerts with Louis van Dijk , sometimes as a duo, sometimes in a larger context with Tonny Eyk , Pim Jacobs and Pieter van Vollenhoven .
In 1985 he was appointed piano teacher at the Rotterdam Conservatory . He continued to work there until 1994.
Besides classical music and jazz, he also played a lot of contemporary French music. Wayenberg composed chamber music, piano concerts, the Solstice ballet and the famous Capella symphony. After rediscovering the luthéal , he wrote the composition "Cadens, Serenade and Toccata" for this instrument.
From 2012 to 2018 he often performed with the young pianist Martin Oei . Because of his deteriorating health, he did not perform since. Wayenberg stayed in a care home in the Paris area. In 2017 he got colon cancer.
He remained unmarried."
Perhaps more of a French pianist than Dutch pianist ? Which may explain some aspects of his D.960 ?

His Gershwin is quite good. Less 'objective' than his Schubert.

Good to hear he is still with us. Among the first classicals I acquired was his Westminster lp of the Chopin Etudes, whose tone, lyricism I still enjoy, and an RCA lp pairing of the Schubert D.743 and 959. Best wishes for his recovery. I had an email exchange with him several years ago about a reissue of the Chopin as he still had the original tapes.
