Hi,

Quick question about the Perahia/Haitnik recording of the Piano Concertos. Is the "Import" version any different from the set that has perahia and haitnik at a piano in the picture? Is This: Beethoven: The Five Piano Concertos

Any different from this:

Beethoven: The Complete Piano Concertos

Remastered perhaps? the original came out in the 90s

thanks

Ellis, you should ask this question in the the classical music community, nobody really checks these specialzed forums.

Hi Ellis S.
I posted this in the classical music forum, I figured I should also post it here to make sure you will see it:

Ellis S. --- Reply to your initial post:
I have a very bad conscience about "inviting" you here from the obscure Beethoven forum, because all we have done is fighting between ourselves about issues that have nothing to do with your question. So because of my feeling of guilt I decided I would buy the set in question and inform you about the remastering or not issue. So I bought this one:
Beethoven: The Complete Piano Concertos
And the problem is: there is no information anywhere on the packaging (no booklet) about remastering. It only says "Producer: Steven Epstein" and lists the recording dates: 1983-1986.
So all I can say is: the sound on these recordings are nothing short of excellent. No early digital "boxy" sound at all.

The product number is:
88697102902
If you google it maybe you can find additional information about remastering, sound etc.

Ellis -- you're welcome.
To tell you the truth I had been looking at that set for a long time and the price was right.
