RICCI, Ruggiero: Art of Ruggiero Ricci (The)

When Ruggiero Ricci made his New York debut in 1929, Albert Einstein proclaimed him a “genius.” Ricci became one of the most exciting musicians of his generation: an electrifying concert presence, champion of virtuoso and unusual repertoire, an interpreter equipped with uncanny technical gifts and original interpretive insight.

The Art of Ruggiero Ricci presents over six hours of great recordings from the Vox archive, including over three hours of music available for the first time on CD. These recordings are from the 1940’s and 1970’s.
