新型コロナウイルスに効く「ピアノの詩人」ショパンのバラード、ノクターン、エチュード、ワルツの定番中の定番

1965年発売ですから、まだ20代のころの録音。後の全集録音の先がけともなった、まだ西側へ亡命後間もない時期の若きアシュケナージの溌剌たる演奏。タッチがとても軽やかで美しく聴く人を魅了しつづけています。アシュケナージらしく、難しいパッセージも軽々と弾きこなして難しく感じさせないナチュラルな演奏です。​プロデュースはデッカの重鎮カルショウ。デッカSXL6143相当盤、英国プレスです。

Place Maubert, 1964* I discovered Place Maubert in 1970, not very long after this photo. I was starting College up the hill, at the Collège Sainte-Barbe, close to the Panthéon. After class one would walk down Rue Valette, then Rue des Carmes, cross Rue des Ecoles, and arrive at Place Maubert, on the Boulevard Saint-Germain and catch the metro. The cars still had wooden doors that could be opened…

Dear friend,

As I listened to the radio yesterday afternoon, I heard your wonderful version of "Carnaval de Vienne" [Faschingsschwank aus Wien] and I cannot resist to express to you my most sincere admiration. Although my personal conception of the work is slightly different from yours in certain details of expression, your interpretation was inspired, quite worthy of the original intention of Schumann, both discreet and openly revealed, consistently moving and picturesque.

Bravo, dear friend, and thank you again for this very inspired interpretation that filled me with joy.

Very sincerely yours,

Alfred Cortot
