Face it, Kids…This is Wonderful
Whatever its flaws, this set is sensational. My interest in music, classical included, is not limited by any means to piano. THAT SAID, if I were to be banished to a desert island and forced to live the rest of my life with ONE possession, it would be this set (and hopefully a CD player). I have listened to the entire collection twice, and perhaps more than anything have been impressed with the choice of recordings. Many duplications of pieces exist, but the performances – varied as they are – are SO incredible that I, for one, never tire of anything in this set. Pianists for whom I had little interest come off as giants, due mainly to the selections of recordings chosen. Rarely was I disappointed when I did get to my “favorite” pianists. Without fail, they managed to choose and present my own “special favorites” in most cases. How do you take the entire recordings of Horowitz & Rubinstein and decide which to choose? (I do own their complete recordings, incidentally … for the most part) Considering that this set CANNOT contain EVERY great recording ever done, they certainly have presented a gold mine here. Alfred Cortot, for example, playing the Saint-Saens 4th Concerto … a recording I had always seen “referenced” on lists of recommended recordings… “who the HECK is Alfred Cortot” I used to think, as I surrounded myself with recordings of more recent celebrities. Hearing the vibrant, grisly, thrilling playing of this and other performances I’d only “heard about” before certainly removed the question as to WHY these wonderful performances keep being “referred to” on lists. And that’s just a needle from the haystack. These are wonderful recordings. Hype? …I don’t think so! The Byron Janis collection included here — alone — is worth the (full) price of this set, and that’s just one of the leaves on the trees. IF YOU HAVE THE MEANS, buy it! A grateful hats off to the creators of this magnificent adventure through great recordings.
Dear Whatever,
I will thank you for this music.
The set does complete my own collection.
Great post.without his time and efforts including this monster set.
Many thanks for the awesome post and your generosity !!!
Extraordinary set!!!
Thank you so much for this wonderful set. I have most of them already but the one thing missing was a track list Which you have provided. God knows how you got it together. Is there any chance of unlocking the PDF so I can print it? It is not nearly as useful to me on screen only.
What a gift anyway!
Whatever: спасибо, thanks, gracias, merci, grazie, obligato, danke. From Alcalá de Henares (Madrid, Spain), God bless you.
This is something I was looking for. The essence of piano music. Thank you so much!!! :)
