Post Description

Mercury Living Presence Boxed Set CD45 van55.
Byron Janis, piano; Kiril Kondrashin and Moscow Philharmonic Orchestra.

Sound recording is one of the most civilised applications of technology. This CD captures an extraordinary pianist in two works, readily available on CD, but not performed like this. Tragically, illness intervened but by a humble CD we do not need to imagine the legend: Janis is in our room at the touch of a button.
