Synopsis

Chopins 200th birthday comes in 2010 and this recital includes some of Chopin´s finest works. At the international Chopin competition in 1980, his spectacular failure to win the first price made him famous overnight. Martha Argerich, a member of the jury resigned in protest, claiming "Pogorelich is a genius!" These fantastic performances are from 1986 and 1987, when Pogorelich was in his late 20s during his high point of his career. Unitel recorded these works with the artist in venues of particularly striking beauty (Vincenca, Vienna, Turin, Padua). Comparing him with Horowitz, the New York Times once wrote: „He was an entire orchestra." Programm includes A05501579, A05501577, A05501576, A05501575, A05501570/71/72
