Description

  • Kyung Wha Chung, violin
  • Philip Moll, piano
  • "Con Amore"

This audiophile recording was cut fr om the original masters of Universal Music, by the great Maarten de Boer at Emil Berliner Studios, world class specialists in vinyl mastering, and pressed with greatest care on 180g audiophile virgin vinyl by Pallas GmbH in Germany.
This wonderful artist, Korean violinist, Kyung-wha Chung, has been widely acclaimed by critics and audiences since the '70s and the '80s & is ranked amongst the greatest of history.  She has become one of the most characterful and best-loved modern violinists in the world. Her absolute commitment reveals her passion and her love for music.  In her disdain for calculated show she stresses that she is not a virtuoso. This powerful humility is obvious even in her supreme playing of the most demanding & complex concertos that she serves with simple uncontrived grace, heartfelt feeling & benign authority.  Here is a glorious "state of the art" banquet of audiophile recordings of shorter works chosen by Kyung Wha for this life-landmark recording & masterfully accompanied by Philip Moll (piano).

If there are items you seek especially, I can maybe find & list.  Professionally retired now, I try always to be kind, concordant & fair.  I've collected for posterity for >50 years, & from eBay for >20 years so it is now time to share some of the assembled rarities.   Best Wishes from balmy South West Ireland.
