I love Abbey Simon...great pianist...i used to have cassette tapes of his works when I was kid...

Thank you. I've only heard Simon today for the first time with his Chopin Sonata 2 final movement, which I thought was astonishing.
-
Abbey is fantastic.
His recording of Chopin concert #1 and # 2 are wonderful.
His recordings really touch my heart I never got tired to hear.
God bless this great pianist.

This was so wonderful for me because I studied with him about 37 yrs. ago when he was teaching at Indiana University, and I haven't heard him speaking since about 1974. What a lovely man. And what an amazing pianist. He told me once that he had learned a Brahms Piano Concerto in 2 days so he could fill in for Van Cliburn. Imagine that! I can't! Ha!

He is a wonderful pianist!! His Ravel complete works and his Rachmaninoff piano concerts are superb as well as his Chopin Etudes.
