Description

|
|
|
"A well-judged, pellucid performance," wrote Gramophone of this Curzon, Szell, LPO recording of 1950 for Decca. "The piano's quality sounds, at full power, a little over-bloomed, but pearly…. The volume is satisfying, the orchestra vivacious and well varied, its attack firm." The Beethoven is supplemented with some bright and brilliant Mozart by Szell and the Cleveland Orchestra from 1955. "Curzon was a stupendous soloist with a virtuoso's technique, a poet's soul, and a lover's touch. Hungarian conductor George Szell was a superlative conductor with a master's technique, an artist's insight…. A performance of rare intensity and rarer still inspiration."—All Music Guide
