*carlo - PassionSometimes the Universe needs to sing!
SaabBoy69 - So happy to be on iTunesI had the CD but somehow lost it over several moves. Van Cliburn playing Rachmaninovs' Piano Concerto is the best to my untrained ears. The piano notes flow so effortlessly at times its feel like water streaming down a brook.
JumpNote - The one and only!Timeless and absolutely genius recording of the historic performance that got Van Clibern a first prize at the Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow (1958). During the full bloom of the Cold War. He proved that Cold War does not exist between artists, or in music. It is only between the Governments. This event was talked about for decades after, including my years at Tchaikovsky Conservatory, and I am sure years after. The young guy from Texas showed everyone in world, including the most conservative musical circles in Russia how to play their own composer's music. And they believed him, and he won! This was equal to fall of the Art Berlin Wall! If you love Classical Music you owe to yourself to get this!
Rjlamb - Life time of InspirationMy mom died in 1961, I was 8 years old. Shorty after my Dad a classical music lover took me to Interlochen Arts Camp to hear Van Cliburn with the International Youth Orchestra. The moon light over the water in the back ground was magical. That moment carried me through many a dark times. I became a life long fan. My daughter played oboe with the Concert orchestra when she was 14, long ago now but what wonderful memories remain of a once in a century talent. R.I.P. V.C.
Raccoon Calhoun - Van fanThere is such a presence felt when I listen to him. He was such a soulful artist whose essence makes each piece feel personal. I love this album.
PY Flipper - One of the most accomplished classical albumThe phrasing is implacable! You gotta listen to the high resolution format (CD) via a good system to fully realize the glory of this recording! ACC or MP3 format would not work ;(
ericp331 - This is the historic Grammy-winning albumThis is the historic Grammy-winning album that brought Van Cliburn's famous interpretation of Tchaikovsky's 1st Piano Concerto to people's homes. It was the first classical album to go gold.
bri27 - Wow.I have never been fond of this type of music--a life-long rock and country guy myself--but I happened to come across this CD on itunes several months ago. I can't say why but I bought it. Boy, am I glad I did. I've listened again and again. And the strange thing is, that I find myself buying more and more classical music now. Strange. Now, I'd like to nit-pick the playing and such, but the truth is I don't know anything about that. What I do know is that I love this album.
macsterdam - One of the Greats!This is one of the single most paramount performances the great Van Cliburn played! I'm so excited it's available on itunes! THANK YOU!!!
Efra45 - I bought itIt's amust have - but the audio seems a bit harsh.. especially the orchestra. The mellow sound is not there. Exellent interpretation. On todays recoding would a have been - unsurpassed.
Terdar - Get it!These two concertos are amazing. What are you waiting for? This album should be in your album by now!
Oh and did you know that van Cliburn, a Texan, won the Tchaikovsky award (soviet award) during the Cold War.
Electric Sky Dog - Masterpiece!!Such a Beautiful piece of music done by an American Master!!
rebecca528 - The first classical recording I remember hearingMy mother had this wonderful recording on vinyl when I was a little girl. I played it to death and, when I wasn't listening to the record, begged for piano lessons. Eventually, she and my dad bought a piano, and I studied for eight years. Thank you, Mr. Cliburn - and rest in peace.
BTW, this was the first classical album ever to sell a million copies. One listen and you'll know why.
