Thanks for this post too – I have some of the AIX Romanian DVD-Audios, but unfortunately, not any of the ones on your list. My favorite of the ones I have is the Romanian Folk Music disc with the Adrian Petrescu Band – lots of insane fun and energy!
Regarding the Anita Chang disc of the Chopin Ballades, I agree that it’s recorded very well indeed. However, I could not get past the performances which sounded a bit (sorry!) amateurish to me – by which I mean lacking basic elements of control and technique in voicing chords or creating seamless legato lines. This type of control is a sine qua non in this music. (I may as well ‘fess up here and admit to being Jon Nakamatsu’s accompanist and sometime duo partner – that influences my outlook on piano performances a little.)
I haven’t heard the new Roberto Prosseda Chopin recital yet, but I agree with you that it’s good to see AIX issuing new classical DVD-Audios! I’ll keep an eye out for it.
