World Premiere Recording

Simone Dinnerstein (piano)

“A highly dedicated pianist is at work…” Gramophone Magazine

“Dinnerstein’s subtly inflected tonal purity and exquisite dynamic suppleness impart a sense of concentrated musical inevitability to the Bach French Suite rivaled only in my experience by Dinu Lipatti’s incandescent reading of the B flat Partita. To say that Dinnerstein is technically flawless would be to hugely understate the case: her playing (like Lipatti’s) is such a natural extension of her interpretative vision that the two become indissoluble. … A stunning recital, engineered with tactile precision.” Julian Haylock, International Piano

“…this second CD of a Berlin recital provides ample evidence of gifts above and beyond the ordinary.” Gramophone Magazine, October 2008
