Kompletní nahrávky legendárního chilsko-amerického klavíristy Claudia Arrau, které byly pořízeny mezi léty 1921 až 1962 a pro tuto speciální edici vydavatelství Warner Classics nově zremasterovány z originálních zvukových záznamů. Kromě dříve dostupných materiálů se zde premiérově objevují také čtyři dosud nezveřejněné nahrávky: Beethovenova klavírní sonáta č. 30 op. 109, dále dvě skladby Lisztovy a jedna Chopinova etuda. Na 24 discích se tak v novém, kvalitnějším zvuku představuje reprezentativní kolekce jednoho z největších a nejoriginálnějších klavíristů 20. století.
