Synopsis

Amazon.com
Vlado Perlemuter is one of the great representatives of the classic French piano school. Unlike some of the best-known French pianists, who cultivated a brilliant top-of-the-keys style of playing, he plays with great security and a wonderfully rich sonority that does superb justice to Chopin's singing melodies. This recording was made when he was 80, but to make up for any minor faltering (and it is very minor) Nimbus gives us superbly realistic sound. There are great complete sets of the Chopin Nocturnes (by Moravec and Rubinstein especially), but for a one-disc sampling this disc is unsurpassed. --Leslie Gerber
