Wilhelm Kempff (piano)

The Broadcasting House in Cologne was also the venue for a series of recordings that the great Wilhelm Kempff made in 1956 and 1960. Familiar works are supplemented by a piece that he never recorded in the studio and that is released here for the first time: Schubert's Fantasia D934, captivatingly played by Kempff and Hedi Gigler.With this programme Kempff meets the listener on familiar ground, bringing to his performances his typically high interpretative standards. Pianofiles rejoice!
