About

Recorded between 1967 and 1973, Wilhelm Kempff’s survey of the major Schumann solo-piano works is “ . . . authoritative and companionable, balanced, and most human” (Gramophone).

Also included in this 5-CD box-set are his rare 1974 recordings of the Piano Concerto and the Konzertstück op. 92 with Rafael Kubelik.

“He is a guide to Schumann . . . authoritative and companionable, balanced and most human” Gramophone

Reviews

2011 edition

this anthology celebrates Kempff's special feeling for Schumann. He is in his element in pieces like Arabesque, the relatively little-known first and third Romances, and the Novelettes, where he inspires an element of fantasy...The Konzertstuck too, not one of Schumann's most inspired pieces, is played most persuasively, with Kempff's magic leading the ear on.
