How many complete Chopin Etudes Recording exists

[etudes]

and how many do u have
and which one u like best!

[Kassaa]

I've four recordings, perahia, ashkenazy, pollini and van den Hoek.

van den Hoek is crap, I like Ashkenazy the most.

[Goldberg]

I haven't actually heard very many complete sets, but my favourite is Cziffra's. My favourite "standard" set is Perahia's, which is strange because normally I can't stand that guy. I don't care much for Ashkenazy's, and have only heard a few of Pollini's which I liked quite a bit (a friend and I were sampling the disc during lunch once, and we only heard op. 10).

[musicsdarkangel]

I have heard many, but just own Ashkenazy and Ohlssohn (Garrick..spelling?).......

Anyway, Garrick Ohlsson does an incredible job lyrically and technically.

I like it much more than Pollini's.


Ashkenazy's are very smooth.

.......

I fold.

[presto agitato]

Many recordings have been made but only a few will prevail ¡¡¡ (Pollini, Anievas and Ashkenazy)

[Barbosa-piano]

 My favorite recordings of Chopin's Etudes are the ones by Guiomar Novaes, and I also like Alfred Cortot, Luganski, and others.
