Edycja Jubileuszowa
There are, naturally enough, many criteria that have conditioned the programme choice for this box-set. With regard to repertory, we wished first to avoid duplications (which, in view of the number of winning Sibelius Violin Concertos or Tchaikovsky First Piano Concertos, was not as simple as it might appear). It also seem desirable to avoid incomplete works, such as are part of the programmes during the first sessions, a choice that deprives one of the excellent set concertos for piano by Raymond Chevreuille (1952), the first movement of which was not played, and of Barber’s Piano Sonata, which John Browning (the future first performer of the latter’s Concerto) only performed in part in that same year. Our intention is to present a meaningful selection of the set concertos, since they form such an intimate part of the Competition’s history. Finally, we want the time allotted to solo piano works and to chamber music to be more than symbolic, in view of its growing importance for the organisation of the "Queen Elisabeth". As for the laureates, after much discussion the most appropriate and fairest attitude seemed to us to be to include all the First Prize winners without exception: it is thus a faithful portrayal of the Competition, bringing out the main thrust of the juries’ decisions as well as the characteristics of the time. Leonid Kogan - who has been in any case remarkably well served on records - opens the series with only a cadenza for his Paganini concerto: the original records were not found, and it was not possible to use the available magnetic copy. It has been included here quite exceptionally thanks to a later phonographic recording of just this extract; but the cadenza will not disappoint violin lovers. In addition to the First Prize winners is a selection (and how cruel that is!) of some striking moments bequeathed to posterity by the laureates placed 2nd to 6th, with a special homage to some of the most memorable Belgian laureates. Lastly, for its exemplary value,we include one recording, (from among others - though this is of particular charm) that shows the artistry of a less highly placed laureate: the very young Mitsuko Uchida. In 1968 she was placed 10th, but her Beethoven n° 3 shows us that the blossoming of her immense talent was by no means a late phenomenon. Technically, the highly varied quality of the recording materials posed serious problems, and considerable differences will be noticed from year to year in respect of the same hall or of similar orchestras. We did not want to level out too much these differences. Consequently, the available sound recordings and copies for 1963 may seem more distant than those of 1959. We believe, however, that the artistic interest greatly compensates for the variations in quality.
