Soon he was highly praised as a performer around the world, due to his technical brilliance, coupled with boldness, a seemingly endless range of timbres, and a superior musical understanding. Besides some vital Brahms performances, many of his other recordings presented here from 12 original albums from the years 1950 to 1961 are also among the highlights of record history. These include Beethoven’s Diabelli Variations and solo works by Chopin, Schumann, Schubert and Balakirev to concertos by Prokofiev, Tchaikovsky, Liszt, Rachmaninov, Bartok, and Britten.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/files\/WORKS_large.png?v=1550243883\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBalakirev: Islamey - Oriental Fantasy\u003cbr\u003eBartók: Piano Concerto No. 3, BB 127, Sz. 119\u003cbr\u003eBeethoven: Diabelli Variations, Op. 120\u003cbr\u003eBeethoven: Piano Concerto No. 3 in C minor, Op. 37\u003cbr\u003eBeethoven: Piano Sonata No. 23 in F minor, Op. 57 'Appassionata'\u003cbr\u003eBeethoven: Piano Sonata No. 32 in C minor, Op. 111\u003cbr\u003eBrahms: Piano Concerto No. 1 in D minor, Op. 15\u003cbr\u003eBrahms: Piano Sonata No. 3 in F minor, Op. 5\u003cbr\u003eBrahms: Violin Sonata No. 2 in A major, Op. 100\u003cbr\u003eBrahms: Violin Sonata No. 3 in D minor, Op. 108\u003cbr\u003eBritten: Diversions for piano (left hand) and orchestra, Op. 21\u003cbr\u003eChopin: Ballade No. 3 in A flat major, Op. 47\u003cbr\u003eChopin: Fantasia in F minor, Op. 49\u003cbr\u003eChopin: Scherzo No. 3 in C sharp minor, Op. 39\u003cbr\u003eDohnányi: Variations on a Nursery Tune, Op. 25\u003cbr\u003eLiszt: Piano Concerto No. 1 in E flat major, S124\u003cbr\u003eLiszt: Piano Concerto No. 2 in A major, S125\u003cbr\u003eMendelssohn: Auf Flügeln des Gesanges, Op. 34 No. 2\u003cbr\u003eMendelssohn: Prelude \u0026amp; Fugue for piano in D major, Op. 35 No. 2\u003cbr\u003eMendelssohn: Rondo capriccioso in E major, Op. 14\u003cbr\u003eMendelssohn: Scherzo in E minor, Op. 16 No. 2\u003cbr\u003eProkofiev: Piano Concerto No. 3 in C major, Op. 26\u003cbr\u003eRachmaninov: Piano Concerto No. 2 in C minor, Op. 18\u003cbr\u003eRachmaninov: Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini, Op. 43\u003cbr\u003eSchubert: Fantasie in C major, D760 'Wanderer'\u003cbr\u003eSchumann: Carnaval, Op. 9\u003cbr\u003eTchaikovsky: Piano Concerto No. 1 in B flat minor, Op. 23\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DOCUMENT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":30975584567383,"sku":"4053796004406","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/products\/71TZjHqFDVL._SL1000.jpg?v=1571835650","url":"https:\/\/classicselectworld.com\/de-de\/products\/julius-katchen-milestones-of-a-piano-legend-10-cds","provider":"ClassicSelect World","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
