Description: VAN CLIBURN / TCHAIKOVSKY - Piano Concerto #1 in Bb Minor, Op 23 (VINYL LP 2014) Yes, this is the classic May 30, 1958 Carnegie Hall recording, remastered in the Netherlands with Direct Metal Mastering technology. And, the cover art has changed. Review from another site:It is here for the first time the listener witnesses the masterful talents of the young pianist Van Cliburn, a native of rural Texas. This record displays his engaging presence and enthralling melodic technique after his thrilling victory in the premiere International Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow in April of 1958. With overwhelming passion and remarkable deliverance of musical clarity, Van Cliburn performs a stirring rendition of Tchaikovsky's "Piano Concerto No. 1 in B flat minor." Cliburn performed a series of concerts in leading cities immediately following the Moscow competition, and Alan Kayes' original album notes printed on the record's back cover state that, according to reports from Russia, "Not within living memory has a musician, regardless of nationality, had such an impact on the critical, sophisticated Soviet metropolitan audiences." During his first showing at the competition's preliminaries, Cliburn caused a sensation. Word got through Russia of his quality of charm, passion, and daring image at the piano. The finals were set for April 11, in which he played Tchaikovsky's "First Concerto" and Rachmaninov's "Third" with the Moscow Symphony Orchestra under the conduction of Kiril P. Kondrashin with a shimmering brilliance. The results where positive and left the audience intrigued and ecstatic. "The crowd then chanted in unision, 'First-prize! First-prize!' for their adored favorite," notes Kayes. FACTORY SEALED, PRISTINE. Satisfaction Guaranteed! FREE MEDIA MAIL SHIPPING TO DOMESTIC ADDRESSES. PRIORITY MAIL available for speedy delivery!
