5.0 out of 5 stars great project 18 Nov 2010
By Miss M. Potter TOP 100 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:Audio CD
This is truly a fantastic project. The Complete solo piano music of Brahms is recorded here by Gerhard Oppitz. The compositions are some of he finest piano pieces ever written. And Gerhard Oppitz does the pieces justice in this moving and expressive performance. He is one of the great German pianists And he seems perfectly relaxed in the studio. He puts great effort into this set of recordings and is enthusiastic throughout all of the discs. A truly magical set of recordings.
The sound is clear and well balanced But I wasn't keen on the packaging. It comes in a box with five CD discs. Each of these is housed in a cardboard sleeve which seems rough on the discs lifetime. They rattle around inside the sleeves or are so tight you have a job to get them out. Along with the five discs there is a booklet. I would have preferred CD trays for the discs as the five CDs in their card sleeves and the booklet all rattle around inside the outer cardboard box. This was the only complaint I have with this release.
The whole thing from a music perspective is outstanding. It is a really good collection of recordings of these solo piano works by Brahms.

5.0 out of 5 stars A monumental achievement!! 11 Feb 2010
By Scriabinmahler TOP 500 REVIEWER
Format:Audio CD
Gerhard Oppitz' complete recording of Brahms solo piano works is a monumental achievement which will stand the test of time. He is technically rock-solid in the taxing large scale works, like the 3 sonatas and variations, and wonderfully sensitive and refined in smaller pieces, ballades and intermezzos. His keen awareness of the harmonic beauty in Brahms' music makes the solo piano works sound almost symphonic and his firm intellectual grasp of the architecture of each piece lifts the music higher than a mere Romantic expression. Beautifully recorded and most recommendable!

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommendable! 8 May 2011
By Jenny
Format:Audio CD
There are many ways of interpreting Brahms' piano works. I found it very stylish and very well within Oppitz' technique. Clear, with a nice acoustic. Good stuff!
