"Christoph Eschenbach is perhaps fortunate to have secured a niche in this particular pantheon. His career as a solo pianist featured a brilliant exposition but little in the way of a development or recapitulation. By the mid-1970s, he was turning increasingly to conducting and chamber music. Still, it was a brilliant enough exposition, as this survey of the expository years 1964-74 largely proves." Gramophone
GREAT PIANISTS OF THE 20TH CENTURY is a celebration of great artistry; it is also the result of extensive and careful research on the part of all who have participated in its creation. We trust that it will bring joy as well as enlightenment to generations of music lovers to come in the new millennium.
