Abbado,Claudio Claudio Abbado - The Early Recordings CD

Early in his career, Claudio Abbado gained attention as both a pianist and conductor in his native Milan. In these rediscovered recordings, dating from the years between 1954 and 1962, he interprets concertos by J.S. Bach (as a harpsichordist), Giuseppe Tartini, and, in a first-time CD release, Giuseppe Cambini. The 'Piano Concerto No 3' by the Paris-based Italian composer is conducted by Abbado's father, Michelangelo, a noted Tartini scholar and founder of the Orchestra D'archi di Milano.
