About

The third volume of the Géza-Anda-Edition by audite with recordings from the archives of the WDR, hitherto unpublished on CD, is dedicated to Anda’s performances of works by Schumann and Chopin which were already celebrated in the 1950s. This compilation features several core pieces of Anda’s repertoire.

These recordings are a perfect example of Anda’s pianism and musicianship: structural intelligence and sound shaping are combined with an extraordinary sense of drama, proportion and inner stability, making these interpretations a historical and artistic document, even five decades after their production.

… who but Anda could capture Schumann's schizophrenic mood-swings, his play of light and shade, so vividly or acutely?
