Product Description
"The quality, both of DG's chosen recordings and the set's general presentation, is just about as good as it gets. To have in one box such wonders as Zimmerman's Ballades, Pollini's Etudes, Pires's Nocturnes, Ashkenazy's Mazurkas and Waltzes, and the Cello Sonata incandescently performed by Rostropovich and Argerich is a treat indeed and could scarcely by bettered. The Concertos are Zimmerman's second recording. ...it is gorgeously romantic, with every string slide cherished and each note turned like wrought gold. This is a set to treasure..."
