Alicja Fiderkiewicz (piano)

“This welcome disc is...a good illustration of Rubinstein's remark that 'only Poles can play Chopin properly'. Warsaw-born Alicja Fiderkiewicz has an understanding of the bitter-sweet melancholy that permeates her compatriot's music, playing with style and perfect articulation.” Stephen Pritchard, The Observer, 22nd June 2008

Benno Moiseiwitsch (piano)

This second volume of Moiseiwitsch’s Chopin recordings focuses on the complete Préludes, Op. 28, which the great pianist had attempted to record, unsuccessfully, with the acoustic process, and the Four Ballades. The recording of the complete Préludes is one of the most satisfactory on disc, as Moiseiwitsch captures perfectly the mood of each of these miniature masterpieces. The slower preludes in particular show Moiseiwitsch’s understanding of musical phrasing linked to harmonic progressions. The recording of the Ballade No. 4, his only 78rpm recording of the work, derives from a test pressing. All tracks were recorded in Studio 3, Abbey Road, London
