1985 • Beethoven Concerto No. 4 DE 3027 (London Symphony Orchestra; Gerard Schwarz, conductor)
“The concerto gets the best performance of all, largely due to Carol Rosenberger’s playing, as poetic in many passages as it is brilliant in other.” —Gramophone
“Beethoven with Poetry and Power” (headline) “Rosenberger plays Beethoven’s Fourth Concerto in an elegantly rounded way⎯with drama, robustness and even a little impetuousness in the outer movements, but with a captivatingly restrained melancholy in the central andante.” —The New York Times
1986 • Falla: Nights in the Gardens of Spain DE 3060 (London Symphony Orchestra; Gerard Schwarz, conductor)
“Falla Nights in the Gardens of Spain (DE 3060): “Carol Rosenberger brings to Nights in the Gardens of Spain all the improvisatory, introspective subjectivity the score demands, and she employs true rubato that makes the freer sections sound, as they should, almost as if she is making the music up as she goes along. She also as few pianists do, has the intelligence to let the sustained orchestral sound take over the customary function of her piano’s sustaining pedal, resulting in some transparent sonic filigree evocative of the Moorish silverwork still sold in the places Manuel de Falla had in mind when he wrote this lovely music.” —High Fidelity
