| Disc No: GH 2228 | This concert, part of the 1944 Beethoven Cycle, presents the Maestro in the unfamiliar music of the quartets, the Beethoven Fourth Piano Concerto, in good sound together with a rehearsal of the Coriolan Overture. On the second CD the American debut of Serkin is heard in which he performs the Beethoven 4th and Mozart Piano Concertos accompanied by the New York Philharmonic directed by Toscanini, from a concert in 1936. This includes the broadcast commentary. The Philharmonic concert is, indeed, a historic recording which was privately preserved on rather noisy discs. This performance reveals Serkin at his very best. The Guild 2 CD set includes a booklet containing an article on both concerts by the music critic William Youngren and photos by Robert Hupka. This is another prize from the Toscanini Broadcast Legacy |
