Michelangeli - Complete Recordings On Deutsche Grammophon[10 Box Set]

It is not a profession to be a pianist and musician. It is a philosophy, a conception of life that cannot be based on good intentions or natural talent.
First and foremost there must be a spirit of sacrifice - Michelangeli

In this edition Deutsche Grammophon brings together for the first time all the performances by Michelangeli that have appeared on the Yellow Label.

Also included are the legendary early recordings of Beethoven and Scarlatti that he made for DECCA.

Excellent documentation includes numerous rare photographs and a new appreciation of the enigmatic pianist by DG producer, conductor and longtime Michelangeli collaborator Cord Garben.

BOOKLET:
New liner notes by DG producer, conductor and longtime Michelangeli collaborator Cord Garben, who is also featuring as conductor on Rare b/w and color photographs.

PACKAGING: A handsomely designed capbox in the style of the recent Pires sets. Including original covers.
