Lorin Hollander: Complete RCA Collection
Lorin Hollander (piano), with Erick Friedman (violin) & Erich Leinsdorf and the Boston Symphony
[ RCA Red Seal / Sony Classical / 8 CD Box Set ]
Release Date: Friday 17 June 2022
Sony Classical is now pleased to present a new 8-disc box set offering Lorin Hollander's complete RCA discography for the first time on CD with original LP sleeves and labels and a booklet with full discographical notes. 6 out of 8 CDs remastered from the original analog tapes using 24 bit / 192 kHz technology. Sony's Lorin Hollander box begins with those two early albums of "favorites" by Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Schumann, Chopin, Mendelssohn, Liszt, Brahms, Grieg, Rimsky-Korsakov, Falla, Granados, Rachmaninoff and Paderewski. In 1963, with Erich Leinsdorf and the Boston Symphony, he premièred and recorded the Fantasy and Variations for Piano and Orchestra by Norman Dello Joio. RCA Victor's release, coupling with the Ravel G major Concerto, became Hollander's international record début and found critical acclaim on both sides of the Atlantic. The box also contains the pieces by Chopin: Polonaise in A-Flat & Scherzo No. 2 , the famous Hungarian Rhapsody No. 6 & Mephisto Waltz No. 3 by Liszt as well as Prokofiev's: Violin Concerto No. 1 & Piano Concerto No. 5, and many more. Lorin Hollander, a legendary concert pianist with a 50 year career, is one of the most electrifying personalities in the public eye. The American pianist was only 14 years old in 1958 when he recorded his first album for RCA, a personal selection of "22 Favorites" entitled Discovering the Piano. Its success led to a sequel the following year. Over the next eight years he produced an acclaimed series of releases for the Red Label, establishing an international career which would eventually encompass more than 2,500 appearances as a pianist, conductor and passionate advocate for arts education. Hollander has performed with many of the world's leading orchestras and collaborated with conductors such as Bernstein, Szell, Ormandy, Leinsdorf, Previn, Haitink, Ozawa and Mehta.
