One of the great pianistic virtuosos of the 20th century
Julius Katchen has been one of the great pianistic virtuosos of the 20th century and one of Decca's star artists.
It would be unthinkable to have a Legends series without an item that shows Katchen at his best when it comes to keyboard wizardry. What better opportunity to have an all-Liszt programme.
The 1955 stereo recording of the Fantasia on Hungarian Folk Tunes is a first release on CD!
