Wonderful set. Regretfully only the 3 Chopin's studies are sometimes performed/ recorded. This is to my knowledge the sole available whole set we can listen. Thank for uploading

Thank you for uploading this precious record. I have had it in my modest collection for about 10 years and it is great to hear it again. I am again struck by how much great music there is here. One can go on an on about the 'canon' of greatest composers, but you cannot have these 'greatest' composers without other composers and influences who came before them and lived in their time. So it's a pleasure to hear Chopin and Liszt alongside Rosenhain, Dohler, Heller, Wolff, Benedict and Méreaux. The Méreaux piece has always been a favourite of mine - a story masterfully told by Shehori.

Méréaux's étude is actually GREAT. Henselt good too. Liszt and Mendelssohn didn't take very seriously tho it seems

[@FiveTwenty507]

ROFL! No. 20 Sounds Quite Like a Op. 25 No. 9!
