Notes & Reviews:

Praga presents the first release in a series of recordings by the legendary pianist Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli, specially remastered for SACD. Michelangeli is widely considered to be one of the finest pianists of the 20th Century. Owing to his obsessive perfectionism, relatively few studio recordings were released during Michelangeli's lifetime. However, these are augmented by numerous recordings (both authorized and bootleg) of live performances. This disc collects 'approved' live recordings of works by Ravel and Debussy from 1960, carefully remastered to DSD from mono and stereo tapes.
