Album Notes & Community Reviews

Anchored by the legendary piano virtuoso Artur Rubinstein, this split release pairs two of the most technically demanding and beloved concertos of the romantic era. Rubinstein executes Liszt's thundering bravura and Grieg's folk-inspired lyricism with immense power, supported brilliantly by Antal Dor谩ti. The recording is a towering monument of mid-century classical keyboard interpretation.
