More on Madame Slenczynska!

At the iTunes Store there are at least five albums with her playing several classical composers in addition to Chopin. Enjoy!

Going through Slenczynska discography she had a large repertoire. Besides Chopin she played works by Schubert, Bach, Mozart, Rachmaninoff, Barber (with whom she maintained a long friendship stemming from their time at Curtis), Mendelssohn, Liszt, Prokofiev, Mussorgsky, Schumann, Debussy, Villa-Lobos, Scarlatti, Bartok, Beethoven, Saint-Saens, Stravinsky, Rameau, Messiaen, Brahms, Haydn and others. That's the recorded stuff. Her actual repertoire would have been more extensive. That's a pretty wide range of styles and eras.
