Treasures From The "Poet of The Piano"

M. Gordon | 11/24/1999

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Before he became conductor of the Detroit Symphony, Ossip Gabrilowitsch was known as one of the great Russian-born piano soloists. His technique was legendary, earning him acclaim as the "poet of the piano" by no less a personage than Bruno Walter, Even after taking up the Detroit post (indeed, Orchestra Hall was built as a condition of his accepting the position) he continued to concertize as a soloist. This disc offers 15 of his piano recordings made during the 1920's, before his illness and untimely death in 1936 at the age of 58. (His wife, Clara Clemens, daughter of Mark Twain, survived into the 1960's). Of historical interest are two of his own short compositions, Melody in E Minor, Op. 8, and Caprice, Op. 3. However, the real gems in this collection are his justifiably famous duet with Harold Bauer of the Arensky Waltz, and the equally famous performance with the Flonzaley Quartet of the Schumann Quintet for Piano and Strings in E-Flat, Op. 44. The latter is in a slightly abridged version - no doubt to meet the limitations of 78 rpm acoustic rercording technology - but the music is superb. Very highly recommended."
