100 albums 30% off at Qobuz - some excellent albums in there

[Musicophile]

Qobuz has a "best of the season" special offer discounting >100 albums by 30%.

 

There are some really excellent selections in there, especially of solo piano music.

A must have is the new Kantorow album:

Another excellent one is Grosvenor's Homages:

Bach from Perahia and Blechacz are also very much worth having:

And finally, the excellent new Volodos Brahms:

Not a must have, but musically very pleasing is Lezhneva's Graun album:

I bought most of the above at full price (ok, at discounted Qobuz Sublime), but have added some of the gaps to my shopping cart right now.

No idea. Will check it out. Minkowski is usually quite good.

CD quality, but but at -80% it's a steal.

I got Grosvenor's Homages and I can confirm that the music, his playing and the sound quality are all excellent.
