Compil. US 2000 on RCA Victor Red Seal label
Classical (Romantic)
"Few recorded versions of the B Minor Sonata are as compelling as Cliburn's. The pianist displays an unusual ability to play big passages without percussive clamor. His softer playing is a model of keyboard delicacy... [The] Mephisto Waltz No. 1 shows the pianist playing with precision, despite a remarkable quick tempo." - Chicago Tribune Total Playing Time: 65:03 Recorded: 1972-75 [1]-[3]: August 8, 1973 and July 10, 1975 [4]: August 4, 1975 [5]: July 3, 1975 [6]: February 1, 1972 [7]: August 8, 1975 Digitally remastered in Weiss 24/96 technology using a customized Studer transport with Cello electronics and universally compatible UV22™ Super CD encoding.
