Product description
Vassily Sapellnikoff (1868-1941) and Xaver Scharwenka (1850-1924) were among the earliest generation of pianists to record, and on this ground alone it is surprising that their complete recordings have never before been transferred to CD. Not only do they give us a fascinating insight into nineteenth-century pianism, but in Sapellnikoff's Tchaikovsky Piano Concerto No.1 (the premiere recording of the work) we hear the pianist who, after his 1888 Hamburg performance under the composer's baton, went on to become Tchaikovsky's favored soloist.
Review
Sapellnikoff'sTchaikovsky Concerto has appeared on CD before but not his complete extant recordings. Here is a virtuoso from the Golden Age who deserves a place among the Rosenthals and Hofmanns- indeed, this discography in some ways is superior, for Sapellnikoff, whatever his faults, is completely fearless and, unlike many of his peers, uninhibited by the recording process. It will leave pianophiles drooling. --Gramophone,June'15
Sapellnikoff was one of the loves of Tchaikovsky's life; his pianism in these recordings entrancing and gossamer-light. Scharwenka's playing is merely efficient. Performance **** Recording * (1910-27) --BBC Music Magazine, Oct'15
