This recording is a live recording of an all-Chopin recital held in 1949 by Sofronitsky, renowned as one of Russia's leading Chopin players, to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Chopin's death.
The program freely intersperses smaller pieces such as mazurkas among masterpieces like the "24 Preludes," "Fantaisie," and "Barcarolle," and the improvisational performance evokes anticipation and excitement.
This is a valuable recording that conveys the essence of this legendary, legendary pianist shrouded in mystery.
