Beethoven, Schumann, Liszt, Brahms, Debussy - these are some of the musical Gods that presided over the repertoire of Claudio Arrau. During his long life, Arrau toured widely, his sophistication and urbane demeanor established him as the Grandseigneur among the pianists.
Claudio Arrau's brilliance lay in that he did not embrace flamboyant virtuosity for its own sake, but simply to present the works of his beloved masters, simply, beautiful and with intellectual honesty. Thus, here he is heard in a live concert performance, playing the works of the composers he loved most.
