“all the performances on the offering from 2010 are as sympathetic as you could wish...Hamelin plays with all his legendary discipline and authority. Jean-Frederic Neuburger tosses off two Heller storm-in-a-teacup Etudes...with all the necessary aplomb, and Ian Fountain gives us a sizeable Wagner-Kocsis transcription with special commitment...Once again this is an invaluable enterprise.”
January 2012
“Ian Fountain conjures up the widest array of sonorities to match the subtleties of Kocsis's neo-Lisztian and highly impressionistic transcription...this is a very stimulating and enjoyable release, with performances of the highest quality exploring repertoire which deserves to be better known.”
