description
Asked to nominate the best-ever recording of Chopin’s Op 28 Preludes I would be hard pressed to choose between Alfred Cortot’s from 1933 and Benno Moiseiwitsch’s from 1948, both of them deeply appreciative of the intense poetry and quick-fire changes of mood that sit at the very soul of the music. Of the two, Moiseiwitsch’s performance suggests the more equable temperament, as you can hear for yourself from his disarming account of the B flat major Prelude (No 21), played truly cantabile…Ward Marston’s transfer for Naxos delivers a rich, well focused piano sound. • Rob Cowan, Gramophone, November 2008
