5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect., 4 Feb 2008
By Mr. R. T. Haynes (York United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
On cassette, back in 1975, this was about the first of the several hundred recordings I was to buy. So at last I have gotten around to replacing my cassette, which still plays fine by the way, with the cd transfer.

These performances simply overwhelm me. Thank you Decca. I think I was originally inspired to buy it through Andre Previn's Music Night of the Grieg Piano Concerto, I can still remember the fjord pictures during the slow movement, and trying to play the piece of course.

Neither Schumann nor Grieg were emotional extremists so I think these performances are pitched exactly right. Beautiful sound, exciting, and yet not in any way marred by any vainglorious individualism.

I would think that these performances would be a safe purchase for almost anyone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Magic, 18 Jun 2009
By Mushroom15 (London, England) - See all my reviews
I remember Radu Lupu playing the Grieg Piano Concerto at the 1971 Promenade Concerts. It was one of the televised concerts. I was already familiar with the piece, but his interpretation was spine-tingling, and whilst not deviating from the original manuscript, was fresh and full of passion. I have never forgotten it, and am so pleased to be able to say that this recording proves that I have not exaggerated the memory in the subsequent 38 years.

I have a soft spot for the Schumann Concerto, having studied it for GCE "O"-level music more years ago than I care to remember. Again, this is a masterful interpretation, a beautiful balance between soloist and orchestra.

I have several recordings of both concertos, but this is undoubtably the best. MAGIC!
