The Complete Leopold Godowsky - Marston - 7CD - 2008

Leopold Godowsky (1870-1938), known to pianophiles as "The Buddha of the Keyboard" and "The Apostle of the Left Hand", was one of the great geniuses in pianistic history, earning the highest esteem as both performer and composer. Virtually self-taught, he concertized all over the world until felled by a stroke at a London recording session in 1930. Godowsky was praised for his effortless technique and the remarkable tonal subtlety of his playing. Godowsky’s recorded legacy extends from 1913 to 1930 and includes discs made for both American and British Columbia as well as for Brunswick. Until now there has been no systematic, comprehensive reissue of his recordings. Marston is proud to announce a Complete Godowsky series in three volumes of two discs each, arranged chronologically by recording date and utilizing the best available original copies. Many items, including test pressings, will appear on CD for the first time.
