Scherzi Nos. 1-4

Simon Trpceski (piano)

"He quickly displayed the compelling hallmarks of his style: light but devastatingly punchy octaves; well delineated rhythms (he can pounce on chords with a drum-like vigour when he chooses); a gossamer touch in lyrical episodes; and an impeccable ear for internal balance.” The Times (on Simon Trpceski playing Chopin at his Wigmore Hall recital in 2005)
