In 1998 a 2-CD compilation of Ivan Moravec recordings was published as part of the landmark Philips series, Great Pianists of the 20th Century. He is described by New Grove as one of the finest Chopin interpreters of that century. In 2000 Moravec was awarded the Charles IV Prize, the Czech Republic&#8217;s most prestigious acknowledgement of service to humanity. That same year President V\u00e1clav Havel presented Moravec with the Medal of Merit for outstanding artistic achievements.
