Harmony in Friendship" - 50 Years of Chamber Music & Lieder Recordings with Friends & Family! Insights, perfectionism, dedication - all these qualities are key to Ashkenazy's music making, as soloist and collaborator, in both chamber music and as conductor. Ashkenazy was principal conductor, then music laureate of the Sydney Symphony. The Complete Chamber Music & Lieder Recordings complements Vladimir Ashkenazy's Complete Solo Recordings (Decca, Limited Edition 89 CDs + 1 Blu-ray Audio) and collects his recordings with orchestral colleagues (Barry Tuckwell, Catherine Hewgill, Frank Cohen, André Previn), renowned soloists (including Itzhak Perlman, Lynn Harrell, Ida Haendel) and his sons (Dmitri and Vovka) on works ranging from Mozart to Szymanowski, taking in a large corpus of Beethoven's chamber music with piano and Brahms. 51-CD limited edition box set in original jackets, richly illustrated with rare and beautiful photographs of Ashkenazy, a comprehensive index and an authentic liner note by his friend and producer Jeremy Hayes. Vladimir Ashkenazy (Piano)
