BRAHMS: Edition - Complete Works
Bo Skovhus, Gunther Leib, ...

Brilliant Classics, 2008

Good budget set.
Alright, I'll admit upfront that I haven't gotten through this entire set yet (or even close to it) but I've sampled enough to where I feel I'm able to give a good opinion. Orchestral music: Inconsistent. The Violin Concerto is the worst of the bunch, with slow ...
  
  











  



  
Chopin: The Complete Nocturnes And Impromptus
Frederic Chopin, Claudio Arrau

Philips, 1997

Claudio Arrau, Enchanting
The eloquence of this enchanting artist is an absolute joy. Excellent recording. A treasure in my collection.
  
  











  



  
Beethoven Edition: Complete Works (85CD Box Set)
Ludwig van Beethoven, Florian Prey, ...

Brilliant Classics, 2007

Glorious Practicality
There's hardly a music lover out there who doesn't already have multiple recordings of the Beethoven symphonies, quartets, concertos, etc., performances from which we choose according to mood, frame of mind-- to any number of reasons. So why not add another set of ...
  
  











  



  
Mozart: Piano Sonatas
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Christoph Eschenbach

Deutsche Grammophon, 1999

Mozart, pure & simple
This is my favorite set of Mozart piano sonatas, next to the Mitsuko Uchida collection from Philips. Eschenbach's performance is unadorned by needless trivialities, revealing a deep reverence for Mozart' score. Instead of taking liberties with the music, Eschenbach ...
  
  











  



  
The World's Favorite Piano Music
Ludwig van Beethoven, Johannes Brahms, ...

RCA, 1992

My favorite CD!
Van Cliburn is a master pianist, and this CD is pure listening enjoyment. I generally am not into clasical music, but this is fun. His working fingers convince me that they are not working. They are dancing, and they are having great fun. WONDERFUL!!
  
  











  



  
The Chopin Collection
Frederic Chopin, Artur Rubinstein

RCA Victor Europe, 1991

The ultimate interpretation
The ultimate way to apreciate the work of Chopin. powerful then again delicate. Sublime piano by Rubinstein. Curacao, apri1 14th 2008
  
  











  



  
Bach Edition: Complete Works (155 CD Box Set)
Johann Sebastian Bach, Andrew Manze, ...

Brilliant Classics, 2006

so far, definitely so good
I have listened to, thus far, 80 discs and have enjoyed all but three of the performances, especially the Mass in B Minor, Magnificat, Christmas Oratorio, Goldberg Variations, The Art of Fugue, and to my surprise in spite of unfavourable reviews elsewhere, the Sacred ...
  
  











  



  
Chopin: Favorite Piano Works
Frederic Chopin, Vladimir Ashkenazy

Decca, 1996

Why are you waiting?
Ashkenazy is one of the titans of Chopin. Davidovich and Arrau are the other two. They're all you need. Get Davidovich for the concertos, (inlcuding the Krakowiak--Op 14), Arrau for the nocturnes and a few micscellaneous pieces. Ashkenazy handles everything else. ...
  
  











  



  
Mozart for Meditation
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Colin Davis, ...

Philips, 1995

Excellent for Massage!
I'm a licensed massage therapist, and I absolutely adore using this CD during my sessions! It's a great alternative to the new age-y music styles that are so pervasive in the relaxation music scene -- my clients find this CD soothing & relaxing, and not at all ...
  
  











  



  
Mozart Edition: Complete Works (170 CD Box Set)
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Bruce Abel, ...

Brilliant Classics, 2005

The best Cosė fan tutte on disc
In is hard to justify spending $120 for one opera, but if you do buy this Mozart box set you will be rewarded by a delightful Cosė fan tutte. This live recording succeeds primarily because of the deft baton of Sigiswald Kuijken. He sets what invariably seems to be the ...
  
  











  



  
Brahms: Concertos for Piano No. 1 & 2, Fantasia Op. 116
Johannes Brahms, Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra

Deutsche Grammophon, 1996

a truly great recording
To my mind neither Eugen Jochum nor Emil Gilels received the acclaim appropriate to their genius while they were living. Even now it appears they are appreciated mainly by a small clique of true classical music lovers. These two performances of Brahms' Piano ...
  
  











  



  
Mozart:The Complete Piano Sonatas and Variations
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Daniel Barenboim

EMI Classics, 2000

Lovely
As a pianist myself, I love Barenboim's playing. He does not play Mozart too Beethoven like. His performances are usually VERY good, and this is one example. Also includes the complete variations, which are very nice. The sound quality is excellent. Very highly ...
  
  











  



  
Horowitz Live and Unedited [includes Bonus DVD]
Johann Sebastian Bach, Ferruccio Busoni, ...

Sony, 2003

WHAT IS GOING ON?
WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE? WHY CANT YOU JUST LEAVE THE POOR MAN ALONE? I AM A PIANO STUDENT WHO JUST FINISHED A CONCERT SERIES OUTSIDE OF MY OWN COUNTRY AND I HAVE JUST READ SOME OF THE OTHER REIEWS ABOUT HOROWITZ HERE AND I AM FRANKLY DIGUSTED. ARE WRONG NOTES ...
  
  











  



  
The Swingle Singers - Bach Hits Back ~ A Capella Amadeus
Johann Sebastian Bach, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, ...

EMI Classics, 1998

Best Swingles Ever
If you know the Swingle Singers, you may expect jazzed-up Bach with a rhythm section. Now, don't get me wrong, i like that stuff, too, but that is just clean fun, while this is just Bach. No percussion, no jazzy rythym, just straight unaccompanied Bach. AND IT IS ...
  
  











  



  
Piano Favorites
Ludwig van Beethoven, Johannes Brahms, ...

EMI Classics, 1995

Elegance at the piano
I grew up listening to Moura Lympany's playing, especially Litolff's Scherzo. Never could understand how a person could play with absolute control at high speed. In this recording, most (though not all - the Etude in C# minor an obvious exception)of the music is more ...
