Few pianists on record convey quite the impression of actually composing the music while they perform it that sets Wilhelm Kempff's artistry apart. This quality may owe something to his gift as an improviser (Kempff had also received early training as an organist); but it most obviously stems from an intuitive power to identify and state--with remarkable purity of expression and singing grace--the essence of a work.
