CD Reviews

Classic Example of an Inept Reviewer

Mad Dog | TimbuckThree, Tennessee | 12/15/2005

(5 out of 5 stars)

"The previous reviewer gave this masterpiece a single star based upon this supposedly being a single CD costing over 60 bucks. No, if the reviewer had taken the time to read, he/she would have seen that the Amazon listing clearly says this is a 3-CD set. Now I do believe that 60 bucks for a 3-CD set is steep but I did fork over the cash after hearing this set at a friend's house. It's THAT good! Zoltan Kocsis provides outstanding performances of these Mazart sonatas that are fresh and beautiful. The recording quality is excellent, once again demonstrating that analog can deliver incredible sonics (this is an ADD recording from 1980). The bottom line is that if you love Moxart's piano music, this set will not disappoint. Kocsis' performance of sonata 11 in A major is alone worth this steep price tag!"
