Description:

A rare collection of Chopin mazurkas by the famous Belgian pianist Michel Bloch! This is a collection of Chopin mazurkas by Michel Bloch, the famous Belgian pianist who is famous for the episode in which he was awarded a special prize second only to Pollini, the winner of the competition. This album was recorded 35 years after the International Chopin Piano Competition, at the age of 58, when he was at the peak of his maturity, and his calm yet tasteful performance demonstrates that he was a master pianist. It is regrettable that there are so few surviving recordings. Tokyo M-Plus
