{"product_id":"maurizio-pollini-chopin-etudes-op-10-25","title":"Maurizio Pollini - Chopin Etudes Op. 10 \u0026 25 [2LP]","description":"Immerse yourself in the unparalleled artistry of Maurizio Pollini with this 2025 remastered edition of Chopin Etudes Op. 10 \u0026amp; 25, pressed on pristine black vinyl.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis release is nothing short of a cultural resurrection. Decades ago, following his triumphant victory at the 1960 International Chopin Piano Competition, Pollini signed a deal with EMI and recorded these remarkable performances. However, the Études recording was shelved after Pollini withheld his approval for reasons never disclosed. Finally, in 2011, listening ears were blessed with an edited version, but now, for the first time, we have a freshly remastered edition sourced from the original tapes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eImagine an 18-year-old pianist whose technical prowess defies his years, as he breathes life into the likes of “Études Op. 10, No. 3 in E major” and “Études Op. 25, No. 9 in G-flat major.” Each note, executed with precision bordering on the supernatural, reflects both Pollini’s razor-sharp technique and his profound sensitivity to Chopin’s genius compositions. This rendition commands attention, offering both historical significance and an emotional depth that resonates with anyone who engages with its rich textures.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor enthusiasts and collectors, this edition is not just another reissue. It's a masterstroke that transports listeners to a pivotal moment in classical music history. A must-have treasure for those who cherish excellence, it invites a fresh encounter with Pollini's youthful interpretation of Chopin's timeless masterpieces.","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51728715448625,"sku":"5021732497178","price":37.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/4405295-3325756.jpg?v=1755009210","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/maurizio-pollini-chopin-etudes-op-10-25","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
