Simplicty, clarity, elegance

Reviewed in the United States on January 4, 2011

Verified Purchase

This recording came as a bit of an awakening to me. I am only familiar with the larger orchestral works and initially purchased this disk because I liked some other recordings by Firkusny. ON AN OVERGROWN PATH was a revelation. What I love about Firkusny here, though I have head him be quite passionate--even ferocious--in other recordings, is his utter simplicity and clarity of approach. Nothing is too broad or overly sentimental. The music takes care of the sentiment all by itself. This is also what I love about Gilels's approach to the Grieg LYRIC PIECES, of which these put me in mind: clarity and elegance with no musical hyperbole. The orchestral pieces are equally fine, with Kubelik as a sensitive conductor, but it is the first disk that has captured my heart. This may soon become desert island material for me.

I could live with just this and a little food for a long, long time. Janacek, and this performance in particular, get right to the heart of it.

Very good reading, but not the best, of really lovely music

Reviewed in the United States on February 15, 2004

As a long-time fan of Janacek, I know this recording from LP. It is quite well played, and is one of the only recordings out there of Janacek's wonderful and generally neglected piano works. My only problem with it is that I also have a recording of some of this music (also on LP, and not available on CD, alas) by Ivan Moravec. Like many of Moravec's recordings, that one ruined anyone else's interpretation for me - it is delicate, nuanced and in places capable of moving one to tears. Firkusny's playing is more straightforward, maybe a trifle colder, but the quality of the music still comes across.

Absolutely breath-taking

Reviewed in the United States on June 20, 2000

This is, simply put, one of the best CD sets out there. Janacek truly had a gift for writing piano music, and, equally so, Firkunsky had a gift for interpreting them. Every piece on these discs is a gem, from the peaceful "On the Overgrown Path" to, my personal favorite, the intense and mature "Capriccio", these CDs have no weak points. If you are at all a fan of Moravia's greatest composer, or if you are looking for an introduction to his works, this is a can't miss.

Wonderful music, but I'm not sure I like the interpretation

Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2003

Janacek is one of my favorite composers; I am currently learning "On the Overgrown Path" on the piano. I bought this CD based on the glowing reviews on this site.
I myself don't much care for Firkusny's style. I am only a student. More importantly, I think, I am an American; perhaps I'm too ignorant of Czech style to appreciate the interpretation. That said, I want more clarity. I want the rubato to be more overt. I love the music, but I want it to be more overwhelming---I really like the Guarneri Quartet's interpretation of the string quartets.
I'd be interested in hearing Schiff's interpretation of this music; I'm not sure I'd recommend Firkusny unless you are a scholar or a true devotee of Czech style.

High Quality Compositions at a Low Price

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 25, 2013

Verified Purchase

The best known piano works on this set are very soulful and even emotionally profound. Moreover, they are in no way formulaic yet they sound familiar and appealing at first listen.

Here these brilliant pieces are played to perfection in a classic recording. I strongly recommend this set.
