Brought together on 5 CDs, the complete Beethoven concertos in performances by great artists and orchestras.

An essential compendium.
"Of all piano concertos, Beethoven's Fourth perhaps best suits Pollini's qualities. His tone is exceptionally beautiful in quiet passages, rich and full at loud moments. [...] a performance of the highest quality, one of the very best on record." Records and Recording, March 1977 on Piano Concertos 3 & 4
