- Moss Music Group (who now owns the Vox and name) have released a 2CD set of
- pieces for piano and orchestra, with some encores, in their fairly new "Vox
- Legends" series (~$10).
-
- Guiomar Novaes Plays Piano Concerti
- Beethoven: Concerto #4 Op. 58
- Chopin: Concerto #2 Op. 21
- Schumann: Concerto Op. 54
- Encores by Bach, Gluck, Saint-Saens, Brahms & Beethoven
- Vienna Symphony Orchestra
- Otto Klemperer, Conductor
- CDX2 5501
-
- They may well release further sets of the Chopin solo piano music. I tend
- to think that it might not be real soon (unless this release sells very well)
- as there are many Chopin recital CDs in the various MMG lines featuring the
- likes of Ivan Moravec and Dubravka Tomsic and including an excellent nearly
- complete set (missing the Preludes, oddly) on 5CDs featuring Abbey Simon.
- The Simon recordings are all available separately for ~$9 each, and are
- worth checking out.
