The best set of Chopin's Etudes ever recorded!
- | 12/14/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I have just few words about this set of Chopin's Etudes: delightful and brilliant. Stunning fluent technique and amazing precision combined with a strong sense of lyricism and melody often a lack in other versions though all great. I own many fantastic recordings (Zayas, Gavrilov, Cziffra, Pollini, Peraya, Ashkenazy, Chiu, Cherkassky, Virsaladze, Magaloff, Tomassi, Neuburger and some etudes by Vladimir Horowitz and John Bingham) but this set is my favorite. The difficult first Etude Op.10 with its beautiful wide right hand arpeggios, the 5 and 8 along with the n.12 Revolutionary op.10 , the first and the last of Op.25 set all are perfomed marvellously, with masterful fluency, power and poetry. Boris Berezovsky recorded these Etudes when he was 22 back in 1991 (now he's 36). This young pianist now is surely one of the best virtuosos of our times along with Nikolai Lugansky, Marc-Andre Hamelin, Maurizio Pollini, Murray Perahia, Juana Zayas, Elisso Virsaladze, Maria Joao Pires, Angela Hewitt, Francesco Libetta, Nikolai Demidenko, Piers Lane, Evgeny Kissin, Arcadi Volodos, Oleg Marshev, Frederic Chiu, Piotr Anderszewsky, Martin Roscoe, Leslie Howard, Konstantin Scherbakov, Steven Osborne, Jonathan Plowright, Julian Jacobson, Stephen Coombs, Burkard Schliessmann, Lise de la Salle, Severin Von Eckardstein, Jean-Frederic Neuburger, Bertrand Chamayou and many others...."
