Though Bach is my poison, Van Cliburn makes me love everything he plays.

No muddled playing for him, just a crisp fluid romantic touch. It feels like his hands make love to the piano and all that love transcends to the listener, this listener for sure.

Van Cliburn and Dinu Lipatti are my piano gods.

It's getting difficult reviewing the Living Stereo SACD series, because I ran out of superlatives long ago.

You simply can't go wrong with any of them. They are all masterpiece recordings, cherry-picked and beautifully, lovingly restored. The sonics are simply the best that current technology can achieve.

Every time I listen to one of the Living Stereo SACD's, I feel like I have stepped into a time machine and been transported to a legendary concert 40 or 50 years ago.

Listening to this disc of Van Cliburn and Fritz Reiner performing Schumann's Piano Concerto and Beethoven's Emperor Concerto, I feel like the time machine has dropped me off at the concert venue (50 years ago) so remarkable is the sense of freshness and vitality in the recording.

The artistic interpretations are timeless (and have rarely been equalled), the sonics superb...I just can praise this recording and this SACD series highly enough. August 31, 2007
