Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars High Quality, But Not Perfect (For Me)!   July 22, 2008
M. Valerio (Norway)
1 out of 2 found this review helpful

This is a bargain for the price, with GREAT sound quality! Warm, but also clear. The perfomances are great, specially the mazurkas and waltzes and sonatas. I thought the noctures where played a bit to "straight", but it depends what one compares it to. I prefer Cortot for about all the Chopin I've heard of him before 1934 (Although I like Rubinsteins sonata better) and brazilian G. Novaes for the nocturnes.


3 out of 5 stars Clean and correct   May 19, 2008
Hank M (South Africa)
0 out of 7 found this review helpful

These impressions are based on very limited listening thus far but the performances seem to be very crisp and correct and devoid of schmaltz which surprised me. I think Chopin needs a bit more melodrama to be at its best.


5 out of 5 stars The ultimate interpretation   April 14, 2008
R. van Haaften (Curacao)
1 out of 2 found this review helpful

The ultimate way to apreciate the work of Chopin. powerful then again delicate. Sublime piano by Rubinstein. Curacao, apri1 14th 2008


5 out of 5 stars Must Have Rubinstein   April 6, 2008
Jeffrey D. Hall (URUNGA, NSW Australia)
In an age when there were few exceptional pianists, Rubinstein came to maturity after his marriage and 40th birthday - and fortunately his best work was recorded by RCA in America. Here's the Chopin you must have in a collection. Still brilliant by today's standards and still the Master.The Chopin Collection


5 out of 5 stars The Reference for Chopin   March 28, 2008
J. S. Hernandez (El Salvador)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This is the collection for the ages. It has the best repertoire I had ever wished, and the quality of sound is excellent, knowing that the recordings were made in the 55's-65's period. I am fully satisfied with this product, for Rubinstein's interpretations are superb and the reference for all the pianists and audiences in general: They are emotive, harmonic, delicate and masterful. --USEFUL--: The last disc is Mono (recorded 1946), so it has poor quality sound. The disc is the one of the Preludes Op. 28, and as an annex it contains the repeated and older recordings of the Barcarole Op. 60, the Berceuse Op. 57, and the Sonata Op. 35 (these pieces come in the Stereo discs too; i.e. repeated recordings). I do not miss the Preludes, so for me it is OK. Also this collection does not have the Etudes Op. 10 or the Op. 25. So if you want the Preludes and the Etudes to be in your colection, think buying this product twice. But if you do not care that much, buy it.
