Chopin: Preludes, Impromtus, Barcarolle & Berceuse - Alfred Cortot 3 reviews Frederic Chopin, Alfred Cortot
EMI Classics, 2006
Clarifying the previous review
+ The Legendary Cortot.
Mr. Wilde is spot-on in his comparison of Cortot's 1926 and 1933 recordings of the Preludes (although the most recent reissue of the 1926 recording, on Naxos Historical Series, has noticeably improved the "fuzzy" sound). What Mr. Wilde doesn't really make clear is that this EMI "Great Recordings" ...

Chopin: Piano Sonatas; Etudes 3 reviews Frederic Chopin, Vladimir Ashkenazy
Decca, 2000
A collection of performances revealing unequalled beauty...
+ Very Good + Splendid double!
Although Ashkenazy has been criticised because of the lack of brilliance in some of his more recent recordings - the Grammy-winning Shostakovich Preludes and Fugues being an exception - these excerpts from the Complete Chopin Edition he recorded for Decca prove otherwise. The three sonatas - ...

Rubinstein Collection, Vol. 45 18 reviews Frederic Chopin, Artur Rubinstein
RCA, 2001
A testament to Rubinstein's greatness, and Chopin's
+ What can you expect. + 10 stars !
If someone wished to make a case for Rubinstein's genius not only as a Chopin interpreter, but as a pianist of the first rank, they'd need do little more than offer this one recording as evidence. The control of melodic line, lift, chordal technique, brilliance in ornamentation and fioriture - all ...
