Rating:  - Wonderful Performance, Poor Recording
All other reviewers seem to be satisfied with the quality of this recording, I found mine to be very poor. The performance is beautiful-you would be hard pressed to find better; however my download was riddled with not only digital but also very distracting background noise. At times it seems as if the recording was made from someone in the audience. The moving climactic crescendos are marred by slight distortion and at times you can hear what sounds like humming. I've owned a copy of this recording ... Read More
Rating:  - Very Pleased
Fast, professional handling and completion of order handled DIRECTLY from Amazon. Excellent CD at very good price. Note stark contrast to terrible service received on 2 other orders placed at same time via Amazon that were handled by external vendors.

So far, after 1 month, have received one refund, but 2nd vendor refuses to even communicate with me (he got his money, I got nothing). Lesson is to BEWARE of orders not handled ... Read More
Rating:  - Not enough of a good thing!
This is a very good rendition of Beethovan's Emperor. Of course having Bernstein and Serken anywhere near a piano concerto makes the whole CD but the only problem is that it is too short! Guess Ludwig just wanted to tease us!
If you like Beethovan, pianos, Serken and Bernstein then this is worth your money!
Rating: - Flawless and moving
This was the recording that introduced me to Beethoven's 5th Piano Concerto, making me wonder how I had missed it in all my years (15+) of listening to classical music. I listened to my cassette until it was completely ruined. Although I have yet to hear other renditions of this piece, I can compare it to my other Beethoven symphonies (among others). In that light, I find this particular recording to be flawless. The piano is fluid and seems to dance with the orchestra, and it reminds me of watching a pair ... Read More
Rating: - Grandioso...
Beethoven escribio este grandioso concierto, una joya musical.
Leonard Bernstein dirije en forma sobresaliente a una impecable Filarmonica de Nueva York y Rudolf Serkin nos deslumbra en forma extraordinaria. Es una presentacion colosal.
El concierto que tiene un inicio sublime se empieza a energizar y se convierte en una sesion de vigor intenso; luego un adagio sutil, sentimental, profundo va poco a poco destinado a explotar en un allegro generoso, potente y vibrante.
Es de verdad una interpretacion ... Read More
