Exceptional set!
The first CD includes the entire recital given in, recorded in Teatro Colon, Buenos Aires, 21-07-49. And despite of the fact the poor sound quality, the recital well deserves praised comments. The set of Chopin's Mazurkas is really outstanding. Performed in ...

Michelangeli at His Best
One of my favorite albums has always been the Ravel Concertos with Argerich playing the G maj Concerto and Beroff play the Concerto in D. I still think this disc is unmatched when it comes to an album with both concertos. I've always loved the Argerich and always ...

excellent artists!
I don't understand quite where the other reviewer is coming from. This is a treasure-trove of piano music by some of the best classical pianists of the last century. If you want a musical anthology of some of the best by some of the best, pick it up!

Debussy: Images I/Images II/Children's Corner

Claude Debussy, Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli

Deutsche Grammophon, 1990

One of the Top 10 Debussy Keyboard Albums of All Time
...which is quite a mouthful considering that it was released in 1971, long after the "Golden Era" of virtuoso pianism had ended. But with the so-called "mad genius of the keyboard" known as A.B. Michelangeli (1920 - 1995) at the helm, it became a huge winner both for ...

The best, if not the most, Debussy that money can buy.
Clocking in at more than two-and-a-half hours of music by Debussy, this is one of the best collections of his music that money can buy. It includes definitive performances of his most popular symphonic, chamber, and solo piano works. Michelangeli, for instance, is ...

Decca, 2002

High-quality, marvelously varied intro to baroque music
I am buying this as the perfect gift for Russian and Chinese scientist friends. They have knowledge of classical music but perhaps not much about baroque music, which achieved special popularity in the U.S. during the 1970's and 1980's. Russians seem to have more ...

EMI Classics, 2004

Interesting, and so cheap!
In response to the reviewer below, yes, some of the recordings do not have the best sound quality. But that's not what this is about, it's about great recordings of the century. There are two discs, each with about 18 tracks, averaging about 4 minutes each, of ...

Unparalled Excellence (Mark G. Davis)
If you only purchase one classical piano cd in your entire life, this one should be it. All the masters, at their very best on it. If you have piano cd's, this should be part of that collection. I purchased one, almost not believing what I read on the jacket. I'm ...
