SOLOMON IN BERLIN J.S. Bach, Beethoven, Brahms & Chopin

APR7030
2CDs
2 Recitals recorded in Berlin in 1956
JS BACH Italian Concerto • BEETHOVEN Sonatas 3 & 14 ("Moonlight")
BRAHMS Intermezzi Op.116/4 & 118/6 • Rhapsody Op.79/1
CHOPIN Fantaisie • Nocturne 1 • Scherzo 2

Here is a most valuable set of solo performances... exceedingly well-reproduced... . What makes this two-CD set really stand out... is the inclusion of some repertoire that he never recorded: a splendid Italian Concerto, a fine group of Brahms and the Chopin Nocturne, Op.9/1 and Second Scherzo – two sensational performances that have every right to be included in any pantheon of Chopin recordings.
