Brahms: Concerto No. 2/5 Intermezzi

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Although better than his recording of the Brahms First Piano Concerto, largely due to the stabilizing influence of Fritz Reiner on the podium, Van Cliburn's performance is still nothing special. RCA has one of the great recordings of this piece, with Sviatoslav Richter, also recorded in Chicago (under Erich Leinsdorf), and that is the version to get. There's simply no question about which is the greater performance, despite the fact the Reiner (and Cliburn) mavens may want to own this anyway. --David Hurwitz

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Ultimate music for every time of day and every mood.......2007-07-03

With 20 CDs in the collection, we have classical music for every mood and atime of day.

4 out of 5 stars Would give 5 stars if sound quality where better.......2007-06-30

This Classical collection is one of great length and breadth ,and is well worth purchasing ,if you want an abundance of music at a low price.The sound quality is decent,however it is not great.This set will not provide you with the crisp,clear sound quality of a RCA,CBS or other well known label,so some classical aficionados may not appreciate it much.It all depends on what your looking for ,I guess.

5 out of 5 stars Great collection for a great price.......2007-06-27

I did not expect much in buying this collection, but I was greatly surpeised. There were no reviews of the product at the time, and I bought the collection simply as a sampler of many great piano pieces. Most of the recordings are exquisite and of decent recording quality. This collection was well worth the price.

5 out of 5 stars 20 Fabulous Discs.......2007-06-08

I am surprised that this set has been out for 4 years and nobody reviewed it here yet. This is a lovely and occasionally amazing compilation. I was moved by many of the compositions. I really enhanced my classical music collection with this set. You have so many legends here to enjoy, from Bach to Brahms, Mozart to Beethoven, Chopin, Liszt, Rachmaninov, Gershwin, and more. If you love classical piano music and don't already have most of these works then this is a must buy for you. The price may go up, but I was fortunate to cash in on the $17.97 price. Quite a bargain for 20 fabulous discs.

5 out of 5 stars New Compilation By Brahms' Best Interpreter.......2006-01-22

Wow, I have the honor of breaking in the review line on this 3-CD set! Here we have Radu Lupu's entire recorded output of Brahms' piano music, all from 1971-81. CD 1 (like CD 2) was previously released as a single CD, so be sure you're not duplicating your collection. CD 3 is a previously out-of-print recording of Concerto Nr. 1 with the London PO conducted by Edo de Waart. I'll address this first. I had never heard Lupu's concerto, and, as an unremitting Lupu fan, I had high hopes. He plays the socks off the thing as I envisioned. However, de Waart and the London PO aren't quite up to Lupu's standards, and a tug-of-war at times threatens the proceeedings. It seems Lupu wants to push ahead in tutti passages, then wants to luxuriate in solo moments--perfectly Brahmsian, I think, if de Waart would only allow him. Also the strings just play with sloppy intonation and execution. One wishes for Jochum's Berlin Phil. to come to Lupu's aid here! Having said that, I will likely keep this right up there with my Gilels version, if only to hear again and again Mr. Lupu's poetry and passion.
As for the other 2 discs (CD1: Sonata Nr.3, Theme and Var. in d minor; CD2: 2 Rhapsodies Op.79, 3 Intermezzos Op.117, 6 Piano Pieces Op.118, 4 Piano Pieces Op.119), I rate his playing to be the best I've heard of these works. If you think he's got the more wistful, roaming Brahms down, you may be surprised to hear his Op. 5 Sonata, where his architecture rivals Richter. I think Lupu just GETS Brahms, more so than anyone else. I feel the same way about Brendel and Schubert.
This 3-CD set makes a wonderful intro to Brahms piano music; if you only wish to own one, this would be a terrific choice!

3 out of 5 stars The "Clinker" of the bunch.......2006-12-19

Having collected the entire "The Masterworks" series (including the Bach and Mozart Complete Works) this set is the 'clinker' of the bunch. First off... 6 CD's of Lieder 'historic' (pre-historic) recordings. No Overtures, No Orchestral Seranades, No Haydn Variations?? The performances of the Symphonies and the Concertos are shakey and not very well recorded. Brilliant Classics, who has done such a wonderful job with the Hadyn Complete Symphonies (licensed from Nimbus), the Mozart and Bach Complete sets, has stumbled a bit with this release.

4 out of 5 stars Great Selection, Not Enough Harpsichord Tracks.......2004-03-06

I know, I know it's triumph of the piano, but I would have preferred a couple more harpsichord pieces to add a little more perspective (this CD has only two). For example, the insert states that the first edition of the Moonlight sonata bore the inscription "for the harpsichord or piano-forte"; it would have been fun to hear it on the harpsichord. Overall, it's a very nice CD with a great track selection and good sound quality.

5 out of 5 stars Amazing Variety of Classical Music.......2004-01-09

If you like the piano, you will absolutely love this cd. I feel in love with it the first time I heard it. All the classics are contained with additional songs from composers I've never heard of -Igor Stravinsky and Francois Couperin - who wrote my new favorite song. Other than those two, Bach, Scarlatti, Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, List, Schumann, Mendelssohn, Chopin, Brahms, Rachmaninov, Debussy, Bartok and Scott Joplin give you their best compositions. This cd is truly amazing - what a variety! I own several copies - it's a wonderful investment. Even if you only somewhat like classical music, I can guarantee you will not be disappointed with this. Enjoy the music :)

This CD has lovely music, but it also has "bird songs" which are loud, intrusive, quite annoying, and most un-lullaby-like. I do not recommend it and would return it if I could.

    Although better than his recording of the Brahms First Piano Concerto, largely due to the stabilizing influence of Fritz Reiner on the podium, Van Cliburn's performance is still nothing special. RCA has one of the great recordings of this piece, with Sviatoslav Richter, also recorded in Chicago (under Erich Leinsdorf), and that is the version to get. There's simply no question about which is the greater performance, despite the fact the Reiner (and Cliburn) mavens may want to own this anyway. --David Hurwitz

    5 out of 5 stars a glowing, magnificent performance.......2000-09-13

    Don't be fooled by the critics. This is one of the most probing, mature renditions of this work ever recorded, and the competition is fierce. Only Pollini comes close and I have heard most of the great ones- Gilels and Richter come to mind in recordings from this period. The Brahms 2nd calls for more depth than almost any other concerto, and Van Cliburn delivered. There is poetry and elegance required in a performance of this work that only these artists gave in full measure. This is a glowing celebration of Brahms in a timeless artistic collaboration. Hear this one before you decide.

    5 out of 5 stars If you like Cliburn and Brahms, buy it!.......1999-07-15

    The Piano Concerto No. 2 in B-flat of Johannes Brahms stands out as one of the summits of writing for piano and orchestra, and Van Cliburn is youthful, masculine, and athletic in his interpretation of this concerto. Brahms poured out his heart into this concerto with a mixture of "Classical restraint" and "Romantic abandon." Although Cliburn's tempi are a little on the slow side, this fact allows him to be more precise in bringing out the details of one of the longest concerti of all time. The aging Fritz Reiner and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra are effective compliments to this pianistic genius who was then in his late twenties. The five intermezzi that serve as filler are so much more than that in their plaintive beauty, stemming from the meticulous creativity of Brahms in his final years.

    2 out of 5 stars YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR.......2000-07-24

    10 CD's of beautiful pieces of classical music, digitally recorded for only 20 bucks sounds very good. I decided to buy this CD set because of very good price. But, what you will get for your money? Noting special, believe me! I was very disappointed with some performances, but sound quality of some tracks is even worst. Disc No. 6 is one of the most poorly recorded and engineered CD's I have ever heard. I can't believe that this CD is digitally recorded. So, forgot price and look somewhere else. I can recommend this CD box set to absolutely beginners only.
