| |  | Liszt: Piano Sonata
The young pianist Markus Groh, first prize winner at the Queen Elizabeth competition in 1995, makes his recording debut with a stunning performance of Liszt’s iconic B minor Sonata together with the lesser heard Fantasy and Fugue on B-A-C-H and Totentanz, more commonly heard in the version for piano and orchestra. Groh’s performance loses none of the impact, however. This is a tour de force of masterly piano playing. Groh’s impressive international itinerary includes performances of the great romantic repertoire with such orchestras as the London Symphony Orchestra, Philadelphia Orchestra, San Francisco Symphony and St. Petersburg Philharmonic. He is a regular visitor to Japan and also performs frequently in his native Germany. Liszt’s technicolour writing and Groh’s pianistic fireworks are brought to vivid life by the SACD recording. “Here is Liszt playing of rare passion and musical integrity. There is no tip-toeing round the great B minor Sonata, no imposition of self-conscious effects or losing the thread through over-interpretation. Over and above its masterful construction and ingenious thematic interplay, it is a virtuoso vehicle that should thrill the listener - and Groh scintillates. More thunder and fireworks follow in Liszt's solo version of his Totentanz, its transcendent difficulties brushed aside with aplomb and exuberant relish.” Gramophone Magazine, July 2006 “He is clearly a talent to watch. The approach was fresh, the clarity and musicality of his phrasing impeccable, and his range of keyboard colour quite remarkable.” The Guardian | | | Usually despatched in 4 - 5 working days. |

| |  | Alfred Brendel plays Liszt & Schumann
(Recorded May 1972 - November 1997) “Liszt's Sonata is seen to have 'an enlarged field of tension' and here is a performance that, from a tension of expectancy in the dragged notes of the opening bars to the tensions of the bravura passages, is the epitome of breadth and dignity. Not meretricious but not cerebral either; and to that add 'passionate' in Kreisleriana and Fantasie, the climaxes of its finale gauged to a nicety.” Gramophone Magazine, March 2006 | | | Usually despatched in 8 - 10 working days. |
