“ Beginning with a (live) spirited, fresh account of the Concerto – the slow movement is spellbinding – Katsaris follows this with “Morgernstimmung” from the first Peer Gynt Suite. Although many of us will have the piano score, few will recall it being played in concert, a further example of this pianist’s omnivorous appetite for the unconventional and willingness to step outside the normal keyboard repertoire.” Gramophone, April 2008 Reissue of the Month

“With his almost Mozartian conception of the Converto, and his fabulously crystal-clear articulation in the Lyric Pieces, Katsaris manages to make these well-worn favourites sound really fresh and spontaneous.” BBC Music Magazine, May 2008 ****

PLEASE NOTE: These are great recordings but they are not new. This disc, issued in september 2007 is simply a re-issue of parts of 5575622 and 5572962. In our opinion the cover is mis-leading in this respect.

“I always feel a sense of homecoming when I perform Grieg yet I don’t think that this is necessarily because I am Norwegian. Grieg’s music has a universal feeling - a sense of drawing the listener in - and that is probably why he remains Norway’s most eminent composer even now, 100 years after his death.” Leif Ove Andsnes
