Brahms, Beethoven: Works for Piano [Hybrid SACD] (2006) more music like this

performed by Misha Dichter (piano), Gewandhausorchester Leipzig, Kurt Masur (conductor)
composed by Johannes Brahms, Ludwig van Beethoven

The chief complaint about PentaTone's "RQR" line remains that there is absolutely no mention of any of the performers in the liner notes, despite presenting highly acclaimed soloists like pianist Misha Dichter, world-renowned conductors like Kurt Masur, and world-class orchestras like the Gewandhausorchester Leipzig. The performers deserve as ...

composed by Ludwig van Beethoven

Who should hear the disc in this box set called Emil Gilels Plays Beethoven? The collector who has heard the recordings of Gilels' superb performances of Beethoven's Sonatas for Deutsche Grammophon and of Gilels' superlative performances of Beethoven's Concertos with George Szell and the Cleveland Orchestra? Certainly: Gilels was at the peak of ...

Beethoven: Symphonies Nos. 4 & 7 [Hybrid SACD] (2004) more music like this

performed by Gewandhausorchester Leipzig, Kurt Masur (conductor)
composed by Ludwig van Beethoven

It doesn't matter which Beethoven symphony he's conducting, Kurt Masur is a one-size-fits-all interpreter. It could be the Olympian Fourth or the Dionysic Seventh, but Masur invariably makes it sound middle-of-the-road massive and more or less monumental. In the graceful Fourth, Masur leads the Gewandhausorchester Leipzig in a performance of ...

Liszt: Tasso; Les Préludes; Orpheus; Mazeppa; Mephisto Waltz No. 2 (2002) more music like this

performed by Gewandhausorchester Leipzig, Kurt Masur (conductor)
composed by Franz Liszt

Vivid and viscerally exciting, Kurt Masur's performances with the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra of Franz Liszt's symphonic poems may be considered streamlined modern interpretations -- lean and propulsive, with only a nod here and there to sentimentality and lushness. Listeners may respond positively to Masur's brisk, no-nonsense tempi, and the ...

It's probably unfair to compare Sergey Khachatryan's 2006 recording of Shostakovich's violin concertos accompanied by Kurt Masur leading the Orchestre National de France with David Oistrakh's classic recordings of the works: the 1956 Mitropoulos/New York Philharmonic First and the 1967 Kondrashin/ Moscow Philharmonic Second. Not only was Oistrakh ...

performed by Elisabeth Leonskaja (piano), Glenn Dicterow (violin), Lorne Munroe (cello), Michael Schönheit (organ), Kurt Masur (conductor)
composed by Pyotr Il'yich Tchaikovsky

In its way -- its very, very Teutonic way -- this is a great set of Tchaikovsky's symphonies and piano concertos. Not only does it contain all six numbered symphonies plus the Manfred Symphony and all three numbered concertos plus the Concert Fantasia, but it also contains several of the composer's best-known symphonic fantasies -- Romeo and ...
