Opis

VARIOUS:COMPLETE HOMOCORDOpis:Product Description Walter Gieseking is known as one of the greatest 20th-century pianists, and his playing of Debussy and Ravel in particular is often regarded as definitive. For most of his recording career he recorded for Columbia, and many of these recordings have been frequently reissued, but his earliest recordings were made in the 1920s for the German label Homocord and these are hardly known.

This set brings together all of them in their first complete CD transfer, and sheds new light on Gieseking’s playing. We hear him in composers such as Chopin and Liszt who he did not feature much in his later years, as well as his earliest takes on the repertoire for which he was to become best known. The set is completed with other rarities: his single Brunswick disc and various previously unissued recordings from a variety of labels. Of particular interest are two major works for flute and piano where we find Gieseking in his much less well known role of composer.

Review APR's lavishly presented two-disc set of Gieseking's early recordings is a treasure trove of rarities and discoveries. And whether such wealth is magical or perverse, a miracle of subtle pianism or a casual rather than stylishly nonchalant dismissal, your attention is centred on a pianist of a unique facility. --Gramophone, Nov'13Autor:Walter GiesekingNośnik:Audio CDPłyt:Język: Data wydania: 2013Waga: 0.18 gramWysokość: 0.6 cmSzerokość: 5 cmDługość: 5.6 cmUWAGA: Kupując produkt na tej aukcji zgadzasz się na wydłużony termin realizacji wysyłki (10-14 dni roboczych).
