Not du Pré, But Still Cause For Celebration!
Review of Elgar: Cello Concerto; Arrangements for Cello and Orchestra by zerbine28

Advantages: Highly burnished, engaging, musically intelligent and emotionally mature playing; beautiful tone is never saccharine.
Disadvantages: Nil.

...and centre throughout. It's a rather lean composition, with only strings and winds keeping the cello company on occasion, and brass accents bursting forth in a few, select spots. THE MINIATURES Even the smaller pieces receive more than mere perfunctory playing from Ms Clein. Originally written for other instruments by Elgar, these miniatures were arranged for the cello by Julian Milone. Ms Clein's engaging style brings a nice contrast between the skipping staccato notes and smooth, flowing legato ones on 'La Capriceuse'. The lovely 'In Moonlight' and 'Romance, Opus 68' evoke an air of joy tinged with melancholia. On the other hand, a whimsical frothiness is offered in 'Salut d'Amour' and 'Chanson de Matin'. Things are brought to a poignant close with the deep sighs of 'Sospiri'. FINAL THOUGHTS Ms Clein, ably supported by Vernon Handley... Read review

Dazzling pianistic virtuosity and sensitivity
Review of Rarities of Piano Music at Schloss vor Husum, 1998 by skriabini

Advantages: Wide range of little-know music played live by world-class pianists
Disadvantages: None for those who enjoy classical Piano Solo music

...plays two transcriptions for piano of orchestral works by the English composer Frederick Delius. Lane plays these in a beautiful gentle manner, with shimmering sounds, aptly portraying on the piano the "English Debussy" as Delius has sometimes been called. Franz Vorraber Franz Vorraber plays Soiree de Vienne by Alfred Grunfeld. Grunfeld is known for his arrangements for piano of waltzes by Johann Strauss. In the late nineteenth and early twentieth century there was a tradition of making virtuoso arrangements of Strauss walzes for piano solo. Godowsky, whose music is heard on this CD (but not any of his Strauss arrangements) wrote some extremely elaborate Strauss paraphrases. Grunfeld's arrangements are generally less elaborate, but still often quite virtuoso. This arrangement is based on waltzes from Die Fledermaus (The Bat... Read review

Greatest pianist since Godowsky
Review of The Composer-Pianists by skriabini

Advantages: Top performance of range of virtuoso piano works
Disadvantages: A little too much virtuosity to listen to all in one sitting

...Alkan, Busoni, Feinberg, Godowsky, Medtner, Rachmaninov, Scriabin, and Sorabji have come to be known as the "Eight Composer Pianists" along with the performer, Marc-Andre Hamelin, who is the ninth. Each of them wrote music requiring the most amazing level of virtuosity to perform it. The obvious danger here is that of virtuosity for its own sake, and some of Hamelin's performances of his own compositions suffer from this, especially Etude No 10, based on the famous Chopin "Black Keys" Etude. Hamelin's Prelude and Fugue is also more suited to display than enjoyable listening. On the other hand, the Bach Schubler Chorale arranged by Feinberg captures the dignity of Bach's music in a thoroughly pianistic manner, without any sense of display. The Alkan transcription of Haydn's Andante from Symphony No 94 (the "Surprise... Read review
