Emil Gilels (1916–1985) patril k najvýznamnejším klaviristom 20. storočia. Tento sovietsky klavirista, ktorého technická brilancia a hlboko cítená interpretácia preslávili jeho meno po celom svete, zanechal dedičstvo, ktoré dodnes oslovuje milovníkov klasickej hudby.
Limitovaný päťdiskový album Recitals At The Concertgebouw prináša kompletné záznamy piatich recitálov, ktoré Gilels absolvoval v amsterdamskom Concertgebouw v rokoch 1975 až 1980. Na týchto 93 nahrávkach znejú diela Beethovena (sonáty č. 12, 25, 26, 27), Brahmsa (Balady op. 10, Fantázie op. 116), Chopina (sonáta č. 3, polonézy), Schuberta, Mozarta, Prokofjeva a ďalších. Vďaka procesu reštaurovania Phoenix Mastering tieto na roky zabudnuté vystúpenia uzreli svetlo sveta – ich kvalita a stálosť Gilelsovej hry ukazujú, prečo právom patrí medzi najväčších hudobníkov minulého storočia.
