"At his best, Schnabel was a re-creative musician whose highest inspirational flights could change your life for the duration, although I think that even he would have admitted (along with Furtwangler, Kempff, Edwin Fischer and Huberman) that the muse did not always follow him into the recording studio....All true Schnabelians will want to snap up this set, if only for the alternative recordings of the late sonatas" 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.
