Amazing Solo Piano Recordings

Cruising this thread, came across this old post, just bought the CD and love it too. Very well recorded and performed plus music that I have never heard before that is beautiful:
11-22-02: Jkaway
Get Stephen Hough's "English Piano Album" on Hyperion! Great playing recording and choice of selections. John K.

Having just gotten the new Telarc recording of Bach's Goldberg Variations played by Simone Dinnerstein, I would say that it is certainly a terrific performance. Well worth owning.

Chic Corea "Himself"

The original post calls for "amazing" piano recordings. I'm not prepared to go that far, but compared to some Oscar Pederson, Herbie Hancock, Bill Evans, Dave Brubeck solos ... the SACD entitled "Solo" by Michel Camilo is right at the top. Since getting it a few weeks ago, I continue to listen and haven't grown tired yet. Besides great piano work and technique, this is a real "in the room" experience. Very musical, with great emotional communication.

A few from the classical front:
Katia & Marielle Labèque, "Maurice Ravel" on KML Recordings
Evgeni Koroliov, Bach "The Art of Fugue" on Tacet
Markus Schirmer, Mussorgski/Ravel "Pictures & Reflectins" on Tacet

And for the piano buffs something special on Tacet. Check out the Welte-Mignon Mystery series. Renditions by the likes of Richard Strauss and Ernst von Dohnanyi (yes, themselves) going back as far as 1905 preserved on Welte-Mignon rolls re-played by the machine's front-end on a modern Steinway for present-day recording. OK, those little mechanical fingers on the machine cannot recreate precisely what the original artist may have done e.g. in terms of pianissimo to fortissimo dynamics, but the recording quality is fine (Tacet wouldn't go for anything less) and it sure is fascinating.
