    What a treat! I drove from DC to Philly to see Leif Ove Andsnes play with the Philadelphia Orchestra, and so glad that I did!

    I truly believe Andsnes is one of the most underrated pianists of our time. His technique is so fluid, yet so understated. Not a flashy pianist, but a very sincere one.
    I already own most of his recordings. The overall quality of his discography is really exceptionally high, there are very few duds given the number of discs.

      @@MisterPathetique Being underrated means that someone or something is not given the level of recognition, appreciation, or acknowledgement that they deserve. It suggests that their true value or potential is not fully recognized or acknowledged by a larger audience, whether it be in the context of individuals, talents, skills, achievements, or even inanimate objects. Is that how you feel about Leif Ove Andsnes? ...him playing all over the world in sold-out top concert halls? His Beethoven Journey a few years ago was received enthusiastically worldwide by legions of piano and music aficionados..no?! you just have a room temperature IQ, is it not?

    One thing I love about him (aside from his marvelous play) is his personality. My dad used to play in the chamber orchestra of Europe, where they played a lot with him, and they became friends. It is so amazing to see him just being a normal, humble individual!

    I was introduced to Leif Ove Andsnes through the beautiful album "Mozart Momentum - 1786." It seems that perhaps this album won't be included in the box set, judging by the video prologue at the beginning. But what an amazing collection this is across the years, and some wonderful treasures indeed!!!

    The first time I ever heard Leif play was his concert on Mozart's G major piano concerto (No. 17), and I felt this was the most powerful interpretation I'd ever heard and all that happened in a live performance! I still hold that opinion today, though I know more of his recordings. Amazing pianist and definitely my top 10 Mozart interpreter!
