About

Recorded in 1957 and 1958, this is a stunning account of these works from the gathered forces. The recordings were made at the first world famous International Tchaikovsky Competition where the American was the talk of the musical world of Moscow.
 
This is an historically important document and, despite it being over 30 years old, is a fantastic performance of these works.
