  • Description

    This year sees a refreshed Chopin Edition from Brilliant Classics, retaining many of the definitive recordings from its predecessor of 2015 (94660) but boasting some exiting updates. The Concertos and piano concertante music are consolidated in a bright new cycle from Czechia, recorded last autumn by Siberian superstar Ekaterina Litvintseva and the KFPar under Mardirossian. Schmitt-Leonardy's sonatas are joined by No.1 - recorded late in 2015 and therefore just missing inclusion in the previous edition - bringing the complete cycle under his fingers. Alwin Bar's own Scherzi performances are reunited with his iconic 1998 recording of the Barcarolle, Fantasy and Berceuse. The Etudes are featured in a stunning complete cycle recorded in 2014 by the phenomenal Chopinist and 2023 OPUS KLASSIK double-nominee Zlata Chochieva. Finally the complete Nocturnes are given over to another noted young Chopin interpreter, the 2018 Geza Anda winner Claire Huangci, who recorded the set two years earlier, in 2016.
