5 out of 5 stars Amazing pianism, the essence of Mozart   May 11, 2009
Pav (Prague, Czech Republic)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

As the other reviewer mentioned, this recording was not in-print for a while. And yet it is an amazing disc. I love Brendel's Mozart, I think Maria João Pires' integral (at DG as well) represents the most accomplished and natural Mozart. I think Friedrich Gulda's Mozart from the recently resuscitated master-tapes is wonderful in their straightforward and yet nuanced approach. The Kempff's Mozart interpretations collected on this disc are irreplaceable in their musical singularity. The recorded sound is wonderful. Grab it before it disappears from the catalog again!


5 out of 5 stars At last I see it again...after 23 years.   April 14, 2006

I have been waiting for this CD for 23 years...since 1983 while keeping the tape version of it all these years. DG released a tape of the same recording in 1981(?) Kempff made few recordings of Mozart's piano sonatas. This is the only one I know existed. This morning I was listening to Lapatti's playing of the same sonata, and I thought, his playing has the qulality (beyond my description ) that comes out of the artist's heart, so is Kempff's ( which I have not listened to for many years because the tape is no longer playable.) How I wish I could listen to Kempff's again. And here is the CD. Mozart must be pleased that his sonata is played as such by Kempff, Lapatti, Schnabel and Haebler.
