Favorite solo piano players...cds

Jessica Williams has quite a few CDs out (www.jessicawilliams.com - get them direct from the artist) and always amazes me in concert and on disk.

Michel Petruccianni "au Theatre Champs-Elysses" has a 40 minute improvisation of his favorite songs that causes me to marvel at his inventiveness and technique.

I want to thank everyone. I love the piano and now have lots
of new names and music to explore...

Willhiem Kempf playing Beethoven sonatas on Deutche Grammophon LPs are fantastic.

Beam yes, you are right, he gives a very romantic rendering. I suggest you try Friedrich Gulda on Beethoven or Sljatoslav Richter, if you can find the LP's. Its also interesting and I find rewarding, speaking of Kempf, to compare some of his renderings of the sonatas with his contemporaries, which would be Claudio Aarau and Backhaus and last not least Clara Haskil, who however was rather a Mozart,not so much a Beethoven pianist. Also, if you find old monos with Solomon, it will probably prove to be a revelation. Cheers,
