  • Description

    At the end of the 1920’s and the beginning of the 30’s, the German gramophone company Polydor issued a number of much sought-after Brailowsky recordings, and even today the technical quality of these recordings as regards to resonance and tonality is astonishing. These old Berlin recordings, the matrices of which were unfortunately destroyed during the 1940-45 bombardment, must surely be some of the most inspiring; here the commercial 78 rpm pressings are presented in brand new digital transfers preserving the art of the 'Keyboard Giant' Alexander Brailowsky, a Chopin player of rare distinction renowned for his prodigious technique and beautiful tone.
