4.0 out of 5 stars Complete mastery, 9 Jan 2004
By David B "Piano David" (GOUROCK, Renfrewshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
  
If you want a recording of Scharwenka's First Piano Concerto, this is the one to go for.

It was originally released on vinyl in the 1970s, when I bought it. Earl Wild is one of the really great romantic piano virtuosi and he is the complete master of this music.

A critic in the sleeve note of the original vinyl release called this work "A wing-ding of a romp", and in Wild's hands it truly is. Most enjoyable, mostly fast with lots of notes all over the place, but also some tender moments, it's all good-natured and totally under control with Wild. A later recording by Seta Tanyel has good recorded sound, but just doesn't have the sparkle and fire.

Buy this to hear one of the great romantic piano masters at work.
