Customer Grieg, Schumann: Piano Concertos / Fleisher, Szell Reviews 




Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars) 4 stars

4 stars Prime Fleisher
I had this album when it came out on LP. It is just a great now as it was many years ago. The sound is good but a bit dated. That is the only reason I don't give it 5 stars. American pianist Leon Fleisher plays with enthusiasm and drive on the Grieg, and with a beautifully lyric touch on the Schumann. This CD is a bargain for Fleisher in his prime and one of the best Grieg/Schumman concerti discs around. Fleisher worked with George Szell and the Cleveland Orchestra several times. All of their Columbia LP recordings are available again on Sony. Check them out too.
