[@mikedaniels3009]

Ever since our music teacher introduced us to Dinu Lipatti and i bought THIS recording way back 45+ years ago, i stopped listening to anyone else. And if i did, it was only for a few minutes lasting reference of key passages such as the intro and the cadenza, to cement my unwavering conviction that Dinu Lipatti, rest his soul, was the ONLY one to really understand and be able to do justice to this masterpiece with his unequalled mastery, unequalled even by other fellow genii, or geniuses like Richter or Gillels. I could try to go into details, but listen for yourself to the singing bass, to Dinu's use of the sustain pedal to make you literally hear the thunder roll across the Norwegian fjords, the lark sing in the woods, hear the call of the rugged northern winds, the absence of soppiness and mawkishness and the virility throughout the entire concerto.... Just like the eagle can't help soaring high above the falcons and sparrows beneath him, so a God made GENIUS smiles on his thrown way above the rank and file of God made "mere pianists". A genius can't help being a genius, the rank and file can't help being "normal". I can only pity those who buy recordings of other pianists in sheer blissful ignorance of the existence of Dinu Lipatti.

Having got a copy of this 1947 Recording Reissued in 1955 by[EMI later Warner EMI]I Consider this Performance to be a Classic of alltime and its as good as the Solomon Recording on His Master's Voice Record Number ASD-272 which I've also got in My own Record Collections which came out in the late 1950's and Coupled with the Schuman Piano Concerto in A Minor and it was such a shame that he died at such a young age[33] on Saturday December 2nd 1950 but what a Legacy that he left behind and I wished that I had been around to watch him Perform in Public as I wasn't Born till six after he died and I've just Bought a 12inch Australian Blue label Columbia LP Record with both the Grieg and the Schuman Piano Concerto's in A Minor Record Number 33CX-7518 and the Transfers are very good Considering that the Grieg is 76 years old and was Originally issued by(EMI Columbia)in 1955 on a 10-inch Blue and Gold LP Record Number 33C-1040 and Schuman 75 years old and was also Reissued in 1955 on a Blue and Gold 10-inch LP Record Number 33C-1001 and I put the date as a rough guess off the 12-inch LP as between 1957-1960 just 10 years after his Premiture Death at 33

Dinu Lipatti fu e resta uno dei piú grandi pianisti ed interpreti. Le sue interpretazioni sono davvero eccezionali, cosí come eccezionale é l`interpretazione di questo meraviglioso concerto. La cadenza nel primo tempo é davvero magnifica. Nonostante la invito ad ascoltare, se giá non l`ha fatto, l`interpretazione dello stesso concerto, da parte di Benedetti Michelangeli, ed in particolrare anche l`ascolto della stessa cadenza.

One wonders if Lipatti would have enjoyed the same adulation today had he lived to be 75. He was, of course, a tremendous pianist and a refined, imaginative musician. But he was not, of course, the "greatest ever", and for a very simple reason. There is no such thing as "the greatest ever" in anything, least of all in a field as rich as classical music on record. Likewise this Grieg concerto, stupendous as it is (by Lipatti anyway, not so much by Galiera and the Philharmonia), is far from being the only one worth listening to.
