Brahms: Piano Works / Peter Rösel (Edel Classics, 5 CDs)
Disc 5:  Paganini Variations in A minor, Op. 35; Fantasias for piano, Op. 116; and Rhapsodies for Piano, Op. 79

Exquisite.

IMO, Rösel's recordings of Brahms' solo piano work compare very favorably with any of the "big names" who have taken on this repertoire.  Lupu, Kempff, Ohlsson, Gould, Serkin, Freire, Angelich, Katchen, Grimaud, et al.

For this listener, Rösel's Brahms is a desert-island set.
