Berlioz: Overture - Benvenuto Cellini
Franck: Les Eolides
Saint-Saens: Piano Concerto No 4*
Debussy: La Mer
Robert Casadesus (piano)*
Concertgebouw Orchestra, Amsterdam
Pierre Monteux
Given in the Concertgebouw, Amsterdam, on October 12 1939
This is an almost complete concert (the missing item is Dukas' The Sorcerer's Apprentice which ended the evening). The sound on these early CDs from the RCO125 set is surprisingly good and not much tolerance is called for in those I've heard so far."The sound is the handwriting of the conductor" - Bernard Haitink

Originally posted by ferneyhoughgeliebte View PostOr possibly not quite - instead, a woman walked to the stage whilst Schuricht was conducting, said "Deutscheland uber alles, Herr Schuricht" to the conductor and then walked off. The concert (on 5th October) was broadcast, so her comment was heard more clearly on the radio than by the people in the Hall, and the recording comes from this broadcast.

A truly wonderful cd from a pianist I look forward to hearing more from in the future.
I reviewed this Rana release. I thought it was stunning and have enjoyed playing it many times over.
