Liszt : Piano Sonata in B minor (Shura Cherkassky)

Recorded live in 1965 in Salzburg A magnificent recording of this sonata despite the poor recording quality. Shura Cherkassky was a phenomenal pianist whose talent was multiplied during concerts. This recording is inspired, powerful but also very lyrical. SC craves the musical speech in a unique way creating a without equal rendition of this sonata. This is one of the best recording of this sonata in my opinion but also a polarized one that could not please some ears. Be that as it may, this recording is fascinating and deserves to be listened again and again Enjoy !
