ALFRED CORTOT The Warner Classics Edition (2023 German 40-CD set, presented in a slipcase box. His exceptional touch and sense of phrasing, his deep and personal understanding of the most varied repertoires, or even the legendary trio he formed together with Jacques Thibaud and Pablo Casals, made Alfred Cortot the greatest pianist of his time. Master of many disciples, notably the brilliant Dinu Lipatti, Samson François and Clara Haskil, Cortot also had a lasting influence on the Russian piano school through Samuil Feinberg and Heinrich Neuhaus, the latter himself being the revered teacher of Sviatoslav Richter. All of the recordings in this set have undergone careful sound restoration in 2012, in order to respect as closely as possible the original sound. The CDs are in BRAND NEW condition housed in the box which remains sealed within its original shrinkwrap)
