The best performance!.......2007-07-14
I own a copy of this performance in LP form. In college (@1980) I must have listened to it 200 times. It was always my favorite. When cd's came out I was disapointed that I couldn't find this edition. I've listened to many renderings of this concerto since cd's have made their appearance. None made it to my favorites stack. Other performers sounded so perfunctory, with none of the nuances that Serkin and the Cleveland Orchestra have, so I decided my memories of the piece were better than having to listen to second-rate performances. When I found this, I ordered several to give to my musician friends who value music played well. To me, this is the best performance on record. I am familiar with almost all of Brahms' works and I believe he would be proud of this recording.
Brahms Piano Concerto No.1; Handel Variations.......2007-01-12
Dear Sir or Madam,
I'm very happy to have been able to listen to Maestro Rudolf Serkin's performance of Brahms's Piano Concerto No.1,which has been reputed the very best. I like the performance by Maestro Arrau as well,though.
Excellent Reading of Brahms First and Handel Variations.......2005-04-01
Rudulf Serkin, in the company of Szell and the Cleveland Orchestra shine a wonderful light on Brahm's First Piano Concerto. Serkin brings the same radiance he delivers to Beethoven's "Emperor". Self-effacing, Serkin noted, "We are nothing next to the immense pieces we play... nothing, we are mere dwarfs". A challenging piece by any measure, Serkin's performance is well balanced with that of the orchestra, which play in harmony to produce elegant sound on this well-recorded Sony edition. While Curzon's (Decca Legends), Fleisher's (Szell/Cleveland) and Gilel's (Berlin/Jochum) stand among the benchmarks for Brahm's First, this preformance certainly holds its own. You will not go wrong owning any of the aformentioned performances. The Handel Variations are a delightful change of pace as a makeweight.
