It would be wonderful to hear many more such historic performances of these bejeweled mazurkas!

the first is no.13

Man I really love that first mazurka. Brings up a nostalgic feeling inside me, couldn't tell you why though.
-
Amazing!! Thanks for sharing.
-
That's extremely precious- Szymanowski always panicked when he had to play piano in public and he begged Rubinstein to play instead himself. Besides I think that Szymanowski was a better pianist than Rubinstein.

I love him so much especially for his Stabat Mater and King Roger!

Bijzonder Rolf ! Mooi. Groet van Cies.

Oh, I didn't mean to criticize or make out that either are superior. Actually, I prefer this recording.

With regret: terrible masterting applied to this recording here must have erased all the colors.

Yes,thank you for posting this magical treat.
Nice to see the recording is appriciated... For me, he sometimes seems to say "did you hear this, did your that", as if he was teaching... :) But it's fascinating to hear the composer play his own work!
Greetings, Rolf
