Just for information 20 July 2011
Format:Audio CD
The only recording in this box that I have actually heard is the Emperor concerto from the 1980s, it was one of the first digitally mastered LPs, certainly the first I ever owned, noted at the time for the exceptional sound quality. I admit that when I heard the Arrau recording on CD my allegiance switched. I also remember the Beethoven and Mozart quintets being on my wishlist unpurchased for years, but the point of this review was to offer a tracklist, so ...

Superb piano playing 6 Nov 2011
By GEORGE RANNIE - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Radu Lupu's piano playing has always provided me with great enjoyment. His tone, technique and seemingly deep feel for the music that he is performing has always been most appealing to me. It is so very nice to have on six (6) discs for a very good price ($28.15) all of his purported concerto recordings for the Decca label (or as it was called, in this country, back in the day, the London label),

I especially loved his playing of all five (5) of the Beethoven concertos. (includes two (2) versions of my favorite Beethoven piano concerto, the 3rd in c minor with the second version with the London Symphony being very dramatically wonderful) He, of course, gives very brilliant performances playing technically just wonderfully. However, to me, in the slow movements, he plays with "his heart on his sleeves" playing very movingly. One of my favorite concertos, the Brahms' 1st concerto is also played wonderfully--all that I can say is Bravo. (Please note that his playing of Mozart's Piano concertos numbers 12 and 21 is just lovely indeed)

NO I have not forgotten that he is NOT alone, Radu Lupu is accompanied and lead by some of the best (i.e., Zubin Mehta and the Israel Philharmonic, Edo de Waart, Andre Previn, et al). It is so very good to have these recordings "all together" they are superb plus the sound is very good.

Much to enjoy 4 Jan 2012
By J. K. Davis MD - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I hadn't owned any of these recordings, so this set came as a pleasant surprise, and a good bargain as well. The Beethoven concertos are played in a "classical" style somewhat similar to Perahia's recordings. Beautiful, but if you want a higher intensity "romantic" interpretation, look elsewhere, Pletnev or Kempf, for example. I enjoyed the Grieg and Schumann, the quintets and the Mozart. I felt that the Brahms was rather ordinary; there are plenty of more exciting recordings of that one. The sound quality, even on the analog recordings, is excellent.
