Exquisite.......2004-06-26

I can imagine being there again, in Norway, contemplating the magnificent fjords in majestic silence, listening to the pure waterfalls.

There are so many sounds, many images, many moods that other pianists were incapable of capturing. Pletnev makes you dream and feel, he tells you simple stories of life, and you listen, fascinated, wondering how such simple things could be so complex.

There's a grace, a refinement, a harmony, a sensibility never heard before from Grieg. It's melancholy. It's joy. Iridescent beauty...

Splendid Grieg from Mikhail Pletnev.......2004-03-21

Mikhail Pletnev is unquestionably one of our finest pianists. His splendid playing is not only replete with much drama and pathos, but also has a strong intellectual streak that is as vivid as Brendel's. This splendid recording of Grieg's piano sonata along with some of the most famous Lyric Pieces demonstrates that he is as convincing an interpreter of Grieg as he is of Chopin, Rachmaninoff or Haydn. Along with Leif Ove Andsnes' recent recording of Grieg's Lyric Pieces, Pletnev's splendid account is as brilliant as the classic Deutsche Grammophon recording by Emil Gilels. Indeed, in some of Pletnev's performances, most notably the Wedding Day at Troldhaugen, I doubt I have heard the Lyric Pieces played better with such warmth and vividness approaching Impressionism. Pletnev's exceptional performance of the Piano Sonata may be the finest I have heard. Without question this fine CD is among Deutsche Grammophon's best recent recordings of works for the solo piano.

Judge for yourself!.......2002-03-07

Please ignore the editorial review of this album. I just heard it on the radio and am rushing to buy it. I've heard a number of recordings of most of these pieces, and have never heard them more beautifully played. Grieg can sound really rinky-dink or absolutely profound and moving; this playing is the latter. And the piano that he's playing on has one of the loveliest tones for this kind of music that I've heard.

Customer Reviews:

Piano Fan.......2007-01-20

I'm no musician, but I love this music. Although, I may not be able to put it into words as eloquently and as knowledgably as others, I am a painter and believe this music to be of the best quality of art. I would suggest it to anyone, especially someone beginning to appreciate classical piano music. It's given me so much satisfaction to hear something so acceptable to my ears. I feel Walter Gieseking illuminates this music in subtle ways I cannot fully understand but sincerely appreciate.

Incorporeal pianism!.......2006-01-20

Walter Gieseking was gifted of this particular feature. His pianissimos were simply enviable; the slender approach to Mendelssohn works out as ring to finger. All of us know about his supreme eloquence around Debussy performances, but Gieseking underlines the admirable lyricism provided with an enraptured approach, sounding much more eloquent respect the most of pianists who tend to remark glissandos and arpeggios forgetting many times the absolute chamber work character, where elegance, panache and nuance shake hands.

This is one of the most successful records ever performed, but if you have besides Rena Kyriakou, Guiomar Novaes and Anna Dorffman, you should not have to worry about it, because you would have the cream of the cream versions about this work.

Buy this CD !.......2004-05-11

I own two other recordings of the lyric pieces: one by Gilels on Deutsche Grammophon and one by Sviatoslav Richter on Live Classics. Although I am a huge Richter fan, I actually prefer Gieseking's account. He truly was a brilliant pianist. His account of the Lieder ohne Worte is also quite good. All in all, if you can find this set (I think it may be out of print), buy it immediately. It is well worth the purchase price.

17 Lieder ohne Worte (17 Songs Without Words).......2000-06-13

Gieseking's brilliant and soulful interpretation of these pieces depict the reason for their title(s) - they are songs that do not need words - the music itself tells the story. Included on this CD are songs about passion, beauty, love, tragedy, triumph and bittersweet melancholy. Other artists who have performed these pieces on published CD's, such as Ilse von Alpenheim, play them fairly well from a purely technical standpoint, but they haven't captured the emotion needed to evolve the music into story telling 'songs'.
