We are proud to be able to release these magnificent recordings of concert performances by the legendary Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli, most generously provided by Mrs Maria Caracciolo. Michelangeli’s studio recording of the Rachmaninov has long been the ‘best buy’ and this live performance adds a new dimension to his interpretation.
