Overview
Chopin: Etüden features the celebrated Italian pianist Maurizio Pollini performing two monumental works from Frédéric Chopin's repertoire: the Études Op. 10 and Études Op. 25. Released in 1984 under the ETERNA label, this album captures Pollini's exquisite technique and deep understanding of Chopin’s complex and emotionally charged music. Known for his virtuosic skill and meticulous interpretation, Pollini brings a fresh and dynamic perspective to these iconic pieces.
The Études serve not only as virtuosic exercises but also as profound musical works, blending technical brilliance with deep expressiveness. With Pollini's precision, each study comes to life, from the bright and playful to the intense and stormy. This LP is a must-have for both classical music aficionados and those who appreciate the artistry of Chopin in its purest form.
