Korevaar’s most recent addition to his extensive discography is Beethoven’s cycle of piano sonatas on Prospero Classical, being released throughout 2025. His acclaimed album of world premiere recordings of piano music by the largely forgotten Italian impressionist composer Luigi Perrachio was released in the fall of 2018. Last fall saw the release of the Quintets of Perrachio and Castelnuovo-Tedesco with the Carpe Diem Quartet.
Korevaar is well-known for his many Bach recordings, and has recorded music by Beethoven, Schubert, Brahms, Chopin, Fauré, and Ravel, Hindemith, Ernst von Dohnányi, and Lowell Liebermann.
