5.0 out of 5 stars Mr. Perahia is superb!, March 2, 2006
By Liebestraum (Berkeley, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This is my first Murray Perahia CD. The music was recorded in 1982 and 1983. What a treasure! The sound quality is great. But more importantly, the music is superb. Mr. Perahia's playing is elegant, musical, and unaffected. I love his lyrical and chromatic performance of the Rondo Capricioso in E.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lyrical and technical perfection in Murray Perahia, October 7, 2007
This Murray Perahia Red Seal Masterworks recording is pure perfection.Perahia has full command of the piano,and his interpretations of the Schumann Piano Sonata and the Schubert Piano Sonata are incredibly dynamic and yet totally tender.These older Analog recordings now digitally mastered boom with excellent and vibrant sound.For the price you will not find a better musician or recording of these works.
RATING A+
