Complete Solo 78rpm Recordings

This release is a tribute to the pianism of Percy Grainger who died 50 years ago in February 1961. Grainger was the most reluctant of virtuosos, always wishing that he would be remembered primarily as a composer. However, the large number of recordings he made attests to his greatness as a pianist. Very few of Grainger s recordings are currently available and indeed, many have never been transferred to CD before. This landmark set reveals, in state-of-the-art transfers by Ward Marston, the true glory of Grainger the performer.
