Pianist, composer, teacher and conductor, Mitropoulos in considered as "a forgotten giant ". If he was a big defender
of the contemporary music, if his name still remains linked to Mahler and if his biggest triumph was "Wozzeck" (A.
Berg) , these two unreleased sound documents show that he did not disdain the classic and romantic repertoire.
Tcha¨kovski's piano concerto, recorded November 1954, is starring a 20 years old pianist : Van Clyburn. This young
man made his debuts at Carnegie Hall and then achieved worldwide recognition in 1958 at age 23, when he won the
first quadrennial International Tchaikovsky Piano Competition in Moscow, at the height of the Cold War.
