Hi Jared ,nice write-up James... the Naxos version is the Jeno Jando version I referred to above; the one I disposed of. Very clinical and 'mathematical' wasn't it?
His Annees de pelerinage are a supreme achievement in my view. I would also like to dip into his Mozart PCs at some point...Jared wrote:^^ yes James, the Jando was the one I parted with, because I felt it was a little.. erm, 'metronomic' and lacking in feeling. You are right about his output; I think he's recorded just about everything for Naxos, with mixed success...
ah, that's interesting. I think I'll make do with my Ciccolini set for the time being, mind. I'm kind of grading music into the a) One performance only b) two versions and c) 3 plus versions of a work, depending on how much I like it. Liszt's piano music tends to fit into the former for me..bombasticDarren wrote:His Annees de pelerinage are a supreme achievement in my view...Jared wrote:^^ yes James, the Jando was the one I parted with, because I felt it was a little.. erm, 'metronomic' and lacking in feeling.

I absolutely agree with that recommendation Darren and one that I actually do play from time to time.bombasticDarren wrote:His Annees de pelerinage are a supreme achievement in my view.
