Late Posted September 21, 2019 Report Share Posted September 21, 2019 Yvonne Loriod is probably best known as a piano pedagogue and Olivier Messiaen's wife. Hopefully this new-ish box set changes that perception. She's also a great pianist. Her recordings of her husband's compositions are likely reference recordings. And her Mozart, as one example, stands up there, to my ears, with Clara Haskil. There's still a lot I'm learning — I'm only about halfway through the set — but wanted to enthusiastically recommend it. The sound is excellent mono.

7/4 Posted September 21, 2019 Report Share Posted September 21, 2019 sounds interesting. All I think I've heard is the Messiaen performances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
