Best Fant op 17 on DISC or record or whatever
Ryan Morris | Chicago, IL | 11/21/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I am a pianophile. I love comparing performances, prefering older, lightly edited renditions to todays, fifty take collages. You get some of the live and let mentality charisma of a live perf, better continuity and ect. This disc is a must, even for those who cant bear anything less than our current supersonics, it doesnt matter here because this disc sounds good.

The performances are out of this world, most people who know Moiseitisch are already familiar with the handel(naxos hist) but the op 12 fantasiestucke and op 17 are only available here.

The op 17 is what you will buy this for. It is the best I have ever heard, yes, even better than Fiorentino's(both vers), even better than argerich, cohen,hamelin, horowitz, richter, Cortot's version on sony(newly released but i am kidding because it is the worst thing i have ever heard)ashkenazy, well, you get the point. This is the ultimate, moiseiwitsch was, in my opinion, the ultimate schumann performer(his kinderszenen is the best also(naxos) his carnaval is less up to par, but this fantas op 12 is also one of the great versions available though not the best. Buy this disc, it is usually hard to get, so dont hesitate if it is available."
