Notes & Reviews:

BBC Music Magazine
The transfer might leave the Vienna Volksoper orchestra (not the Staatsoper as credited) sounding a little glassy, but Brendel and Klein are suavely matched in the give-and-take of the two-piano works.

Gramophone Magazine
What is at once astonishing and delightful about these performances is that the constant technical problem of ensemble between the two pianos is never allowed to take precedence over the business of music-making. Some of the rival versions of the concerto may in fact keep even more impeccably together, but none presents us with such consistently beautiful - and meaningful - phrasing.
