Artists:
Emil Gilels, piano; Philharmonia Orchestra, Leopold Ludwig, conductor.

Gilels’ legendary performances of the Beethoven Piano Concertos, re-mastered and presented at super budget price.

“This Beethoven Fourth is one of the most perfect accounts (and perhaps the most perfect account) of the Concerto ever recorded. Poetry and virtuosity are held in perfect poise, with Ludwig and the Philharmonia providing near-ideal accompaniment. Gilels’ “Emperor” is also a masterful and compelling performance” – Gramophone.

The City Waites
“it is no good having lewd works one cannot hear, even if they are all included in the booklet… so full marks for the City Waites and their swinging dialect style… items here are sometimes accompanied, sometimes not, but they are made here into lively entertainments” (Penguin Guide, 3 stars)
“a taste of the broadside ballad culture which pervaded the Restoration and all too easily forgotten.. The Maid’s Complaint is a remarkably spontaneous scene, led by soprano Lucie skeaping complete with a bunch of drunks who join in, late… Good fun but not very clean!” (Gramophone)

LUDWIG VAN BEETHOVEN (1770 - 1827): 6 Variations in F major on an Original Theme for Piano, Op. 34; Variations in D major on an Original Theme for Piano, Op. 76; 15 Variations and Fugue in E flat major for Piano, Op. 35 “Eroica”; ROBERT SCHUMANN (1810 - 1858): 3 Noveletten, Op. 21 Nos. 2, 4 & 8

Sviatoslav Richter, piano
(Beethoven) "There is such richness in the Beethoven variations that it seems pointless and unfair to highlight any one in particular. The D major set uses the Ruins of Athens theme. It is pretty uproarious, with Richter conveying a terrific sense of fun. The Eroica Variations has its light moments as well.....the fugue finale, very much faster than normal, is so extraordinarily exhilarating that it ends the work in triumph, with Richter playing most pianists under the table." - (Gramophone)
(Schumann) "Sheer unassailable authority of sound is perhaps the first striking thing about the... Novelettes; next is the extraordinary penetration into the secret corners of these crypto-narrative structures...loud bravo at the end is annoying but understandable." - (Gramophone)
