  • Description

    After his success in the 1955 International Chopin Competition, Fou Ts'ong made a series of recordings in the early 1960s for the Westminster label which garnered high praise. Sensitively re-mastered, a selection of the Chopin performances which established his reputation, appear on CD for the very first time. Ballades 1-4, Berceuse Op. 57, Nocturne Op. 15 No. 2, Mazurka Op. 59 No. 1, Sonata in B Minor

    Description

    The second volume in Heritage's Fou Ts'ong series focussing on his early career features his Westminster recording of two of Beethoven's late piano sonatas (Op. 109 & 110). Also included are 10 Chopin mazurkas - performances which were recorded soon after Fou Ts'ong received the Polish Radio Mazurka prize at the 1955 Warsaw International Chopin Competition.
