Recorded live at the Philharmonie, Essen, 14 July 2006. Documentary + Performance “Berezovsky takes the palm as a curious and magnetic personality. He has fun with the more outlandish of Beethoven's Dianelli Variations before probing the heart of the mystery. His Medtner reveals the composer is indeed Rachmaniov's equal, as Svetlanov once claimed to me in interview.” BBC Music Magazine, February 2008 ***** “Here, surely, we have the truest successor to the great Russian pianists.” Gramophone Magazine | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |

It is 30 years since legendary British pianist Clifford Curzon died (1 September 1982). Over the course of his career, during a long and almost exclusive association with Decca, Clifford Curzon established a pre-eminence unrivalled by any other British pianist of his generation. For the first time this collection brings together absolutely every recording he ever made for Decca which has survived [in the days of fragile 78rpm shellac discs one or two items were given to the artist as unique-copy test-pressings and these have not survived], including several which have never been published on CD ( or even LP) by Decca [Falla: Noches en los jardines de España (recorded in September 1945); Liszt: Mephisto Waltz No.1 and Liebestraum No.3 – recorded in September 1947, Liszt: Sonetto 104 del Petrarca recorded in1942]. Published for the first-time ever in any format are 8 pieces including a Medtner Fairy Tale, Chopin C sharp minor nocturne, Beethoven’s “Rage over a lost penny”, and 5 pieces by Brahms. These recordings survived as 78rpm test-pressings in Clifford Curzon’s private collection and have been made available for publication through his family. Also herewith alongside 23 CDs is a famous DVD programme made by the BBC. It includes Curzon performing solo works by Schumann and Brahms [filmed in 1959, black & white] and Schubert – including a complete performance of the Piano Sonata in B flat, D960, filmed in 1968 [colour]. | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |
