    All Music Guide Review

    Compiled as a companion piece to a Warner Vision video of the same name, this album features the full or longer versions of the clips played in the film. The major names in concert piano are featured here, and recordings from as far back as 1922 have been restored for this album. A wonderful vehicle to hear some of the greatest and most interesting piano talents ever recorded. Comes as a three-CD set for a total runtime of 185 minutes and eight seconds. ~ Dacia A. Blodgett-Williams, All Music Guide
