Alfred Cortot - Chopin Waltz in C Sharp Minor (1929)
Loading...
Uploaded by transformingArt on Feb 7, 2008
I was surprised that very little amount of Videos which contains any full-length 78rpm recording of Alfred Cortot(1877.9.26 - 1962.7.15), the great Swiss pianist who was specialized in Chopin's pieces, had been uploaded. So, I'm now correcting that.
This recording was recorded in 1929, and later re-released by Japan Victor in 1930s as a part of a 12-disc set album called 'Victor Record Lovers Society' I'll also upload the side B, which contains another famous Chopin piece.
Played on my Numark Machine.

Chopin French? Try Polish through and through, heart soul and harmonies.

Cortot was Franco-Swiss, as already explained earlier on...
Did you know Chopin was also... French? :-o
Some people (especially in the Anglo-US-Saxon world) seem to be unaware of that fact... or just have a hard time swallowing it!
