EMI Classics, 2007 Outstanding Performance Disappointing CD Imagine my surprise when I received this CD, and after removing the shrink wrap discovered that 9 of the 10 tracks or 2 of the 3 works on this CD were re-issues. The Piano Concerto in A minor Op 16 is a reissue from 2002 and the 6 Lyric Pieces were originally issued ...             Leif Ove Andsnes: Ballad for Edvard Grieg Leif Ove Andsnes EMI Classics, 2008 Lovely collection of Grieg's Piano pieces... Fine DVD from EMI This is a lovely collection of Grieg's more famous piano pieces by one of the finest Grieg interpreters of our time.

His splendid performance ...             Mozart: Piano Concertos 17 & 20 Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Norwegian Chamber Orchestra, ... EMI Classics, 2008 BIG Mozart! I suppose an orchestra of hundreds would be barely powerful enough to play ball with Leif Andsnes, the ruling dynamo of the piano. I hardly know what to say about this performance of quaint little Rococo Amadeus by such a Wehrmacht of music, except that it's maximally ...             Schumann, Brahms: Piano Quintets Brahms, Schumann Virgin Classics, 2007 An odd mixture of inspiration and ordinariness If you were to sample the first and last movements of the Brahms Piano Quintet on this CD, the musical alliance of Andsnes and the Artemis Qt. seem ideal.

EMI Classics, 2003 Suspicious I can't help questioning the intention of one of the reviewers named Dag Johansen. He is proactively reviewing most of Andsnes' CDs and giving them very poor rating. In fact, all he is reviewing are Andsnes', no other. I don't mind that if it is truly his honest ...             Rachmaninov: Piano Concertos Nos. 1 & 2 Sergey Rachmaninoff, Leif Ove Andsnes, ...

Some years ago I read Pierre Boulez was thinking about recording Bartok's Piano Concertos, in that moment I thought it could be a good collection but not really so great like finally it is. I have to say that in a first moment I had news of a recording with Krystian ...             Schubert: Late Piano Sonatas Franz Schubert, Leif Ove Andsnes EMI Classics, 2008             Haydn: Piano Concertos Franz Joseph Haydn, Leif Ove Andsnes, ... EMI Classics, 2000 Splendid Performances Of The Three Haydn Piano Concerti Is Leif Ove Andsnes the greatest pianist of our time? I strongly doubt it.
