Tilgængelig fra 17-06-2022

Limited Edition!

Lorin Hollander was considered a musical prodigy; he began composing at the age of three, played Bach's "Well-Tempered Clavier" at the age of five, made his Carnegie Hall debut at the age of 11, and released his first album, "Discovering the piano," in 1958.

Hollander, who was born in New York, was just 14 years old at the time. Now, for the first time, his recordings for RCA have been collected on eight CDs. They show especially his immense virtuoso abilities, but also his stylistic range, already mastered at a young age, and his impressive musicality.

Brilliant performances from 1958 to 1973 of Prokofiev's 5th Piano Concerto, Ravel's G Major Concerto, and Khatchaturian's Piano Concerto can be heard - with the Boston Symphony Orchestra under Erich Leinsdorf - as well as solo works by Beethoven, Schumann, Brahms, and Mussorgsky, among others. Lorin Hollander plays the celesta in a rare work by U.S. composer Leon Kirchner.
