Le 19 octobre 1916 naissait à Odessa un géant du piano, Emil Gilels, mort 69 ans plus tard à Moscou à la suite d’une erreur médicale !
Les éditeurs occidentaux ont anticipé ce centenaire avec plusieurs coffrets importants.
Mais c’est évidemment le coffret Melodia, le label russe historique, qui fait l’événement de ce centenaire. Une somptueuse édition limitée (à 2016 exemplaires, le numéro étant gravé sur le boîtier rouge), composée pour l’essentiel de prises de concert, magnifiquement restaurées, remastérisées, couvrant toute la carrière du grand pianiste, de 1935 à 1984, et un répertoire considérable, comme on le lira ci-dessous.
