Description
ITEM DESCRIPTION:
This fascinating and quite rare LP – a still-sealed copy – from Colosseum / Norichord (ND SM 502, German pressing, stereo) features the enigmatic Elly Ney in a magisterial performance (rec. @ 1961) of Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 5 in E-flat Major Op. 73 'Emperor', accompanied by Willem von Hoogstraten and the Nürnberg Symphony Orchestra. While Ney remains a controversial figure, there's no doubting the immense personality behind her playing – bold, declamatory, and highly individual. She was a born Beethoven player and her interpretations merit close study. Hoogstraten's accompaniment is superb.
Incidentally, there are liner notes, uncredited, on the reverse side of the jacket, provided in both German only and English.
CONDITION:
The gradations of condition I use are as follows: MINT, Near-Mint, Excellent, Very Good, Good, Fair, Poor.
The condition of the mostly still-sealed jacket is VERY GOOD. Although this is a genuinely still-sealed copy, the shirnkwrap has shrunk a bit, curling the corners and leading edge of the jacket, as well as buckling the jacket. The shrinwrap is also quite frayed and open on the leading edge, but the LP is truly an unplayed copy. Otherwise, the album as as new – overall, this rates as an excellent collector's copy.
The condition of the LP is MINT – this is an unplayed copy – the ideal collector’s copy.
