About
Reviews
The first of the three discs has the three most popular Saint-Saëns concertos, opening with the great Jeanne-Marie Darré in No 2 ... Not surprisingly, this evergreen work simply fizzes with joie de vivre. ... The C minor Fourth Concerto is heard in the justly celebrated recording by Alfred Cortot, then at the height of his powers, and Charles Munch. It is, as booklet writer Frédéric Gaussin states, ‘undoubtedly one of the glories of the 78rpm catalogue’. ... Transfer and audio restoration by Mark Obert-Thorn. Another invaluable set that puts pianophiles in APR’s debt once more. Jeremy Nicholas
