Extractions: These two oft-recorded concertos make a strong pairing, given that any pianist-orchestra combination with the artistic wherewithal to tackle them is practically bound to have significant things to say. So it proves here, not least because the historical performance from Byron Janis and the Boston Symphony Orchestra sounds so well in this recent transfer. At the time of the performance Janis was still a young man, not yet thirty, and Munch was one of the worlds top conductors. Their recording of this great concerto proved another highlight in a distinguished and enduring discography, recorded in the glowing acoustic of Symphony Hall.

Highly recommended. Was this review helpful to you? Review by gonzostick October 23, 2004 (3 of 3 found this review helpful) Performance: Sonics: Incredible Disc!!!! Much better than the Rostropovich/Pletnev in the 3rd Concerto. Sound is outstanding! Performance markdown only due to disfiguring cut in last movement of 3rd. I heard Janis perform BOTH of these LIVE! This is the only way to hear that! Incredible pianist! Thrilling performances of BOTH!!! Run, don't walk, and get this!
