da solomon

I am quite amazed by his playing, especially beethoven…some of the best i have ever heard…too bad he was cut down too soon…

His :brotha: 4 is randomly mah favorite. There’s some awsome video of him playing the Appassionata out there.

his brotha sons and brahms stuff with testament label is a must.

EMI also issued a number of brotha son discs and da 2-5 pcs except no.1 which he never recorded it.

:dong:

Along with Gilels, he’s my top pick for :brotha: .

stage6 has da latest gilels vid up.

pretty wikid recital, black & white format in 43 mins.

u mofoz shud check it out.

:dong:

Testament has issued the 5 Beethoven concerti of Solomon, same with the 2 Brahms concerti. Yeah, he’s an amazing Beethoven pianist. His Tchaikovsky and Scriabin concerti are also awesome.

Solomon’s 1948 Op. 111 is the finest :brotha: rec I have ever heard.

Dang, I don’t think I’ve ever heard that Early Op.111.

Though, I can’t imagine it’s better than Richter in Leipzig 1963.

I’ll UL it tomorrow if you like?

I just think it’s so beautiful. But… horses for courses, etc.

can you post a link…i searched but I get no results, unless they already took it down
