When Jorge Bolet died in October 1990 the world lost one of its last "great Romantics
When Jorge Bolet died in October 1990 the world lost one of its last "great Romantics." Spirituality, a luxuriant tonal palette, a real sense of architecture, breadth, grandeur, all allied to a prodigious technique - these were just some of the qualities that informed his playing. Now, for the first time, Decca collects all the recordings he made for the label, from 1977 to 1990. Released for the first time and included in this set, is his last recording, a selection of Chopin's Nocturnes and the Berceuse, recorded just seven months before his death. 26 CDs.
