  • WILHELM KEMPFF talking to a master class in
    Positano, Italy. Plays parts of Beethoven Sonatas 30-
    32 and an arrangement of a Bach Chorale Prelude.
    #104 486, released 1966.

  • The 10" organ disc, #17069, also contains a recording of
    the bells of the Church of World Peace in Hiroshima
    and Kempff giving a short talk. The disc dates from
    1954.


- MYSTERY RECORD -

  • DGG 2610 009 (Sampler): Kempff's 75th Birthday
    (would have been 1970): Beethoven, Chopin, Brahms,
    Kempff talking. All of Kempff's studio Chopin was
    recorded for Englsih Decca/American London; so this
    disc may contain otherwise unreleased material.

  • Idil Biret, piano. Recorded 1991.11.30-12.2, Tonstudio
    van Geest, Heidelberg. Marco Polo.8.223452 (CD).
    Contains:

- BACH-KEMPFF -

  • Nun komm der Heiden Heiland, S. 659a.
  • Es ist gewisslich and der Zeit, S. 307, mixed with Nun freut euch, liebe Christen g'mein, S. 734
  • Siciliano from Flute Sonata 2 in E, S. 1031.
  • Hezlich tut mich verlangen, S. 727.
  • Jesu bleibet meine Freude, from Cantata 147. This is movement 10 of the Cantata and is identical with movement 6 (Wohl mir, dass Jesum habe), only with different words. So the notes are the same. See the main section.
  • In dulci jubilo, S. 751.
  • Sinfonia from Wir danken dir, Gott, Wir danken dir, from Cantata 29.
  • Wachet auf! ruft uns die Stimme, S. 645. This is the first Schübler Chorale Prelude and was adapted by Bach fom the fourth movement of Cantata 140. I presume that this transcription has the same notes as the ones
  • Kempff recorded in the main section.
  • Largo from Concerto 5 in f, S. 1056.
  • Ich ruf zu dir, Herr Jesus Christus, S. 639.
