A Decca Original Masters series title.

The legendary English pianist Clifford Curzon has already featured twice before in Original Masters in a group of recordings from the years 1941-72. Volume 1 was a winner at the Gramophone Awards in 2003 and Volume 2 was shortlisted in 2004 in the Historic Reissue category. These sets have generated a great deal of interest and have introduced many listeners to recordings long unavailable. Volume 3 brings back more recordings by this English legend of the piano world and includes Curzon's first-ever recording for Decca: Liszt's arrangement for piano and orchestra of Schubert's 'Wanderer' Fantasy. In this he is partnered by Sir Henry Wood. Other rarities include his first recording of Mozart's Piano Concerto in A, K488 (a work he would re-record on three more occasions!) and his first recording of Brahms's monumental D minor Concerto (he would return to this on two subsequent occasions).
