Menahem Pressler Plays Mozart (bluray)
Label: EUROARTS Catalog: 2059884 Format: Pressler; JarviComposed by: Mozart; Debussy There have been quite a few child prodigies in musical history. An equally exceptional phenomenon is that of the “venerable prodigy”, a musician who has devoted decades of his life to music and finds himself in a mental and physical state that still allows him to keep performing most ably. On the occasion of ex-Beaux Arts Trio pianist Menahem Pressler’s 90th birthday he celebrated with Paavo Järvi and the Orchestre de Paris, performing Mozart’s Piano Concertos nos. 32 and 27 as well as Debussy: Clair de lune. An interview with Mr. Pressler is a very welcome bonus feature. Price: $52.98 |
