Transmitting Chopin's Poetic Sentiment to the Modern Age
An exquisite interpretation by Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli.
This Italian virtuoso pianist performs Chopin's Mazurkas, Preludes, and Scherzos. His performance, based on perfect technique and deep musical understanding, fully expresses Chopin's poetic world. The Mazurkas in particular beautifully combine the folksy character of Polish dance with the refinement of salon music.
