I find this an agonized anguished concerto. I think Anda was sensitive to this. Haskil is idolised a little woman who could think& feel .Her Debussy and Scarlatti .Her big Busoni in the violin sonata . She is a testament to human accomplishment.
@lovesGenet Also we had Alicia de Larroccha, a very small woman who owned the keyboard. I saw her in Pasadena years ago and then after at a local restaurant. She was very gracious to me and my friends and she was tiny!
These two recorded thi.I cant believe i never heard about these two perfections together in wht is really my fave Mozart keyboard con.Haskil is as polished and sensitive as any "virtuoso".Brilliant she must have been.
did you hear the mozart concerto which horowitz recorded with Giulini? if not you ll find it on youtube. also his mozart sonatas he recorded are very interesting and show another mozart than the beautiful Mozart of Geza Anda who shows a joyful mozart and only this side. Horowitz does Mozart in an orchestral way and with much more expressive elements. Much more is happening.... Geza anda reflects a period of time where people wanted piece and beauty after a period of terror and destruction.
Marvalous. What a genius he must have been. Wondering what hewas like in a real life. I mean, I have read all of th books about his life and his correspondence, too, but it´s a big shame that we don´t know how to travel in time :-))
yes and he smoked all the time.i heard him live in concert and my chair was at the podium near the stage-entrance and i saw him before entering the stage for the first time he butted out his cigarette after taking a deep whiff of course...hehe!!
well he died from a cancer and this came from the smoking.
He left us early. He wanted to buy a steinway piano in Vienna but died. I have the chance to have it today, a piano chosen by Geza Anda. By the way I studied with Zsigmond Szabo when I was young who did study with him.
.....I meant tears of joy on previous posting.....

Dragut0, that is a VERY old progression. It was around before Mozart and Pachelbel.

Geza Anda's hands look stubby in that photo too.
