Olga Samaroff was one of the first American musicians to earn an international reputation and career, but she retired early to become a very successful teacher. All of her surviving recordings are here. Most of them were made by the acoustical process, resulting in very limited fidelity. But since Samaroff insisted on a grand piano, we can still hear the heroic power of her Chopin Third Sonata finale and the amazing Hutchinson transcription of Wagner's Ride of the Valkyries. Four electrical sides, including a sly and sexy Lecuona Malagnena, give us a better idea of her luminous tone. This disc is a limited but precious souvenir of a great artist. --Leslie Gerber
