    5 out of 5 stars one of the greats of all times.......2000-02-14

    Kitain's artistry does not wait for climaxes, it is present in every note, starting with the very technical and demanding passages of the Schuman tocata and the brilliant Revolutionary Etude of Chopin . The Opus 10 # 8 is breathtaking. Speed and color are amazing and I don't thing I ever heard it done as beautifully . The Ballades are beautifully framed, passionate. Kitain is the kind of pianist one doesn't hear any more. You gasp after each piece after it's held you in captivity. Bravuras are what you want to yell even in your own living room. The Liszt is exquisite, delicate where warranted and full of sonority and passion. Brahms waltzes are done with such simplicity that it brings tears to your eyes. One hardly realizes how difficult these original waltzes are. I had the pleasure of attending the 1963 last recital that he gave in New York. I highly recommend the CD.

    3 out of 5 stars Kitain Plays Chopin.......2000-01-30

    My mother was the prodigy of Mr. Kitain in the 1940s, so it was particularly important to me to finally hear his playing in earnest. I found the playing to be on par with the greatest players technically, however i was disappointed in the hurried tempos and lack of emotion expressed. For those interested in his history, he was friend and peer of Vladimir Horowitz, at the Kiev Conservatory in their native Russia.
