Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Superb Brahms Set
An excellent set that I've gotten much listening pleasure from, and will certainly continue to do so. Definitely 5 stars!!


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Dazzling Brahms from an underrated artist
While there may be recordings of individual works in this set that equal these by Katchen (by the likes of Richter, Michelangeli, Gilels and Arrau), you would be hard pressed to find any that clearly surpass them. In other words, Katchen plays Brahms like Rubinstein played Chopin - that is, better than everyone else. That, of course, doesn't mean these should be the only versions of these works you need, but it is the perfect place to start. Katchen does take the sonatas at a slightly faster tempo than Richter, but each line is still clearly articulated. Most box sets have their peaks and valleys, but this one is fairly even throughout. Also highly recommendable for Brahms fans are Katchen's violin sonatas with Josef Suk and piano trios with ... Read More:


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - the finest set of Brahms solo piano music
A British musician once said to me "American musicians don't understand European music." I was so stunned that I could only think to reply, "But what about Murray Perahia?" To which she responded, "Murray Perahia? He's British." I then explained that while Perahia may live in London, he was raised in New York City, where he attended the Mannes School of Music. She seemed sceptical. Of course, after we parted I subsequently thought of scores of American musicians who have performed "European" music with great understanding, but unfortunately, I never saw her again.

All this to say that I have always wished I mentioned Julius Katchen that day. Although I don't suppose that she would have known about the remarkable recordings Katchen ... Read More:


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A wonderful offering.
There may be the individual recording made by others - Gilels, Rubinstein, Arrau - of a particular piece which might be preferred but as a collection of the Brahms piano works, this set has to take the prize.

The quality of original recording is high and the digital transfer seemingly well done. One has to listen very attentively to detect which of the four Ballades were recorded monaurally; a strange anachronism in the 'sixties. Also, the piano is an unusually fine-sounding instrument and I wonder if it might not be the Bösendorfer which resided in Decca's Hampstead studios around the time these recordings were made.

As another reviewer has suggested, the accompanying notes in french and german do provide interestingly ... Read More:


Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - I disagree with the consensus here
I was disappointed by this set and would not recommend it. It's great that all of Brahms' piano works are included here and the boxed set includes some difficult to find works (like those Op. 21 variation sets) as well as the better known and wonderful later piano pieces and the Op. 39 Waltzes.

The problem is that Katchen's performances are flawed and often unpleasant. The worst problem is that he bangs the keys a lot. Fortissimo passages are ideally not supposed to be noisy; they are intended to be loud and forceful without being unpleasant. It's a key distinction that Katchen fails to realize. I also think that Katchen's technique is a bit patchy. He blurs the passagework and there is a lack of both accuracy and delicacy in ... Read More:
