Michelangeli recordings from his prime

Michelangeli’s Ravel concerto, Bach/Busoni, Scarlatti, and other performances from this era shine like fire. Perfection doused in white heat. We also get his refined Haydn and strange Shumann (I much prefer his DG Shumann!) from the 1970’s. Buy this set and listen to the three composers I mentioned in the first sentence and I bet very highly that you will not be disappointed.
