Legendary Live Recording by Romantic Virtuoso
Review of Shura Cherkassky - 1982 San Francisco Recital by  skriabini

Advantages: Cherkassky playing at his best in wide range of solo works
Disadvantages: No Godowsky included

...This is one of the best recordings of the great Romantic Virtuoso pianist, Shura Cherkassky. It showcases him at his best in a recital covering a wide range of repertoire. He is known for being wayward in some of his performances, but there is very little of that in this recital. His performances vary considerably, depending on his moods, the audience and other external factors. He was in top form at this 1982 recital and was very happy with his performance afterwards. He starts the recital with Suite de Pieces by Lully, one of the most well-known early French Baroque composers. Lully was one of the first conductors, hitting the ground with a stick. Unfortunately he died after he hit his toe by accident with the stick. This music was obviously written for the harpsichord (or one of its close relatives) and is not often... Read review

HMV is the best for me.
Review of HMV by  dynamicnurse

Advantages: See text.
Disadvantages: See text.

...I would just like to write a review of HMV, a shop that I used today but in my option is probably one of the better shops to use for entertainment style products. As it is coming up to my dad's birhday, I asked him what he wanted - hoping that it was cheap or not too bad on the old pocket. He stated that he wanted Lords of the Rings, and as we have it only video he said that it would be good to actually have it on DVD. Having already been in to HMV previously this week in order to look for another item (for which I did not actually buy for whatever reason but anyway), I had actually in fact noticed that they sold this item - in my mind, I had £10 for the triple box DVD set. As I went in there to the store today, I went to the place in which I had originally seen the item in question. However as it was not there, I spent some... Read review

Horowitz - Complete DG Recordings in one small box
Review of Horowitz - Complete Deutsche Grammophon Recordings by  iain0408

Advantages: Unparalleled playing, Unbelievably good bargain for 6 CDs!
Disadvantages: Um, paper sleeves? No, seriously, it's great

...This box set comprises recordings from 1985-89, when Horowitz was 81 years old! In 1986 Horowitz returned to Russia after 60 years away to give his monumental Moscow recital of which the live recording is included in this set. I personally find this performance of Liszt's Sonetto 104 del Petrarca to be the finest ever recorded. Alongside this is Scarlatti, Mozart, Rachmaninov, Scriabin, Schumann, Chopin, Moszkowski, and Schubert. Accompanying this recital is 5 other discs of outstandingly unique playing. As he got older, Horowitz's playing became a sort of caricature of itself in the nicest possible way. By this I mean, his dynamics became more extreme, he became more expressive than ever, and his sense of style was heightened to new levels. Horowitz's Mozart playing has been criticized for being too free and not in Mozart... Read review
