Maurizio Pollini's recordings of the Polonaises have attained cult status. Pollini offered playing of outstanding mastery as well as a subtle poetry. His supreme achievement is in suggesting the immediacy of an inspired improvisation, while at the same time preserving the shapely unity of a preconceived whole. To improve the audio quality, the work was mastered and cut from the original 4-track tapes at 45 rpm and redistributed on 2 LPs. THE ORIGINAL SOURCE SERIES: Remastered by the renowned Berlin-based Emil Berliner Studios using 100% pure analogue techniques to create versions of the highest possible audio quality. Produced on 180g virgin vinyl by Optimal and housed in deluxe gatefold editions, featuring additional photos and/or recording documentation.
