Now Since 1989, I have been following this exceptional pianist, since that incomparable interpretation of the 3rd Rachmaninoff concerto at the Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival under Valerij Gergejiev, concert recordings were in the '90s now and then broadcast on the radio, I still glad forbid on cassette. He detested studio productions and when you hear his live recordings, one understands all too well why! Have 3 hours before these two CD's heard and am speechless if his possibilities of sound design, the expression in the totality of the technical proficiency, these are only the basic forms of the inexhaustible possibilities of expression of this century pianists! May he be like Rubinstein (Artur) old and bless mankind for a long time with his lonely darstehenden art!
