Andor Foldes The Tono Recordings (1950-51)

Andor Foldes (piano)

You can hear how he enjoys performing Beethoven. Listen to the 'Pathétique', and it's like hearing it for the first time, and his Schumann sparkles with fresh thoughts... In a time where the past is looked upon with veneration by only a selected few, we must be grateful to APR for bringing back an hour of piano-playing simmering with joy, beauty and that good old-fashioned word: dignity.
