"Everyone tells a story differently, and that story should be told compellingly and spontaneously. If it is not compelling and convincing, it is without value." In these words, from 1991, Radu Lupu outlined his artistic vision. He remains one of the most outstanding pianists of his generation and his 23 recordings for Decca are among the most treasured recordings in the catalog. To mark what would have been his 80th birthday in November 2025, Decca is proud to present an exceptional set of recordings collecting radio broadcasts and never-before released tapes from the Decca archives. Approved by his estate, THE UNRELEASED RECORDINGS is made up entirely of material he had not otherwise recorded and is a dream for many collectors given his rare appearances in the concert hall, and modest discography.
