Emil Gilels (piano)About
Here is, in a few words, the feverish atmosphere that surrounded the genesis of this totally new box set dedicated to Emil Gilels (1916-1985). Considered one of the most important pianists of the twentieth century, he was a pupil of H. Neuhaus. In 1955, he was the first artist to be welcomed in the United States since the war; the public, somewhat circumspect of Carnegie Hall, in New York, accompanied his entry on to the stage with a troubled silence, but it is under a thunder of uninterrupted applause that he will refuse to leave the stage!
His recorded work is important (more than 55 are still available), so finding unreleased recordings is an event. Gilels was particularly fond of Holland, and gave the best in these recitals at the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam. It is in his favourite repertoire - Beethoven, Brahms, Chopin, Prokofiev, Schumann, etc - that we find this legendary pianist, in this box of recordings from 1975 to 1980.
