Alle Hersteller. This is the 1950's mono cycle which in my humble opinion is far better than the 60's stereo cycle he also recorded. 10lp box set complete with insert.
CAT. NO. KL 42/51 (009 116-25) on Records
The box is in excellent to near mint condition. The vinyl is in near mint condition – perhaps one of the best sets I have seen in years.
"Those who have cherished Kempff's later, stereo cycle for its magical spontaneity will find this quality conveyed even more intensely in his mono set, recorded between 1951 and 1956. The interpretations are the more personal, the more individual, at times the more willful;but for any listener who responds to Kempff's visionary concentration, this is a magical series. No other set of the sonatas so clearly gives the impression of new discovery. Amazingly, the sound has more body and warmth than the stereo set." Penguin Guide 2008
