Complete Recordings on Deutsche Grammophon
Maurizio Pollini is one of the most significant pianists of the 20th century, whose playing is considered 'a perfect fusion of architecture and passion' (Jed Distler). The Italian master pianist has made interpretative history with his Chopin recordings, thanks to the breathtaking brilliance, concentration and clarity of his playing. His recordings of works by Beethoven, Schumann and Schubert also set standards that remain valid today.
This new edition, an expanded version of the 2016 box set, now includes the complete Deutsche Grammophon legacy of the great Italian pianist. The 62 CDs comprise his legendary complete recordings of Beethoven's sonatas and concertos, Chopin's études, ballades and preludes, and his exceptional interpretations of piano concertos by Mozart, Schumann, Brahms, Schoenberg, Bartók and Prokofiev. This comprehensive edition also presents all of Pollini's other albums released since then, as well as a Blu-ray disc featuring Beethoven's late sonatas. Notably, it features the CD premiere of recordings from the 1960 International Chopin Competition in Warsaw, which were previously only available on LP in the 1960s. The edition is completed by a 204-page booklet containing rare photos and detailed accompanying information, as well as two DVDs featuring concert recordings with Karl Böhm, Claudio Abbado and the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra.
