Maurizio Pollini owed his first great success to Chopin. He was 18 years old when he won the Warsaw Chopin Competition, prompting the great Arthur Rubinstein to make a legendary compliment: "The boy plays better than all of us". "The boy" then went on to have an amazing career, not only as a virtuoso, but as a socially and politically engaged musician. One of his closest companions was the composer Luigi Nono, whose "... sofferte onde serene" he now juxtaposes with Chopin works. In addition, there are piano pieces by Arnold Schoenberg, another composer for whom Pollini has always been committed.
