Very Poor Transfer
BLee | HK | 03/18/2003
(2 out of 5 stars)

"But Schnabel is very inspiring in that he shows you how to approach and how we can interprete music. Usually we have to hear a whole variety of interpretations in order to get a better idea of the pieces. Listening to Schnabel and you can save about 50% of your efforts and the result is twice as good, because he helps you to see music in a new light. Andras Schiff, for example, often listens to and benefitted much from Schnabel.But the transfer here is very poor indeed despite the fact that I have been listening to quite a lot of historic recordings like Busoni on the piano, the Liszt's Pupils, Schnabel/Szegeti, Busch/Serkin, Bartok, Rachmaninoff on the piano... etc but none is more unacceptable than this one even in view of it's low price. Go for other versions."
