5.0 out of 5 stars
Splendid double!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Chopin: Piano Sonatas; Etudes (Audio CD)
Vladimir Ashkenazy has impressed me a lot with these recordings along with Scriabin's Sonatas. I think the highlights on this Chopin's collection are Sonatas 1,2,3 and the Fantasie in F minor more than 24 Etudes which are played greatly especially the Revolutionary (possibly one of the best i've ever listened to) though there are other pianist more impressive than Ashkenazy such as Boris Berezovsky, Juana Zayas, Nikolai Lugansky, Andrei Gavrilov and the young Jean Frederic Neuburger just to name a few. But the 3 Sonatas and the Fantasie are performend marvellously. Also the quality of the sound recording is really high. This is a splendid double!

This review is from: Chopin: Piano Sonatas; Etudes (Audio CD)
These recordings are the best recordings to get if you are looking for two things in the etudes. those two things are interpritation and finesse. He interprits all of the etudes withought thinking of what chopin has written and even though these all make sence and are beautiful, all in there own way. His technique is flawless and everything is perfect in the music. This is just my thoughts about these and I'm sure that some of you, or all of you will dissagree, but this is my thoughts about these etudes.
The sonatas are the best recording you can get with all three there but that said, their not all interesting... In my oppinion they are flawless, but not musical, they're bland and they have lost my intrest when he plays them here. Some moments are absoultely gorgeous, but in the end he dosn't really piece together his ideas in a logical and drawing way... I wish that I could give you the name of someone who has done dinomite recordings of all of these but I don't know who you should go to for better. these are just my thoughts...
