Terms such as "sophisticated," "intimate," and "quietly nuanced" have long been applied to the interpretations of the immensely esteemed Ingrid Haebler. She was a "purist" in the best sense of the word, and has often said that she always tried to convey the essence of the music in the language and style of the composer's time. Her goal is for the listener to understand the structure and message of the work without anything interfering with it. She has always been admired for the grace and shapeliness of her phrasing, her clear cantabile touch, her crystalline articulation, and the warmth, sensitivity, and quietly nuanced expressiveness of her interpretations. With her impressive discography, Haebler was considered by many to be the "house pianist" of Philips. Decca now proudly presents her Philips complete recordings on 58 CDs as a tribute to this rare and special artist.
