Gramophone (UK): Stanford Concerto for Piano and Orchestra No 2, Finghin Collins

Stanford’s answer to the great Russian concerto It is not perhaps surprising that the key, opening flourishes and other episodes in this splendid concerto recall Rachmaninov’s Piano Concerto No 2. Stanford had conducted its British premiere, with the composer as soloist, the year before he completed his own. If the second and third movements do...

Classical CD Of The Week: Child's Play - The Complete Beethoven Sonatas

Records are made to be broken, even in classical music. When then-24-year-old Korean HJ Lim recorded the (just-about) complete Beethoven Sonatas for EMI (Warner), released for a tenner on iTunes, it made a splash more for its audacity than quality. Two years later, in 2014, she was bested in every way: Swiss-born Chinese pianist Mélodie Zhao had...

Gramophone (UK): Schumann Complete Piano Works Vol 2, Cédric Pescia

Finghin Collins's first volume in Claves's complete cycle of Schumann's piano music (A/06) may be a hard act to follow but in Cédric Pescia, a young French-Swiss pianist, the label has chosen well. Vivacious, lucid and affectionate, all his performances are unfailingly musical. He plays Album for the Young without a hint of condescension but wit...

Gramophone (UK): Schumann Complete Piano Works Vol 5, Cédric Pescia

The Swiss-French pianist Cédric Pescia adds two further discs to his previous volume in Claves’s series of Schumann’s complete piano works. And in Vol 5 he admirably blends the familiar and unfamiliar. Yet, if his energy and enthusiasm are almost palpable, there is too little sense of counterbalancing poise, of calm as well as disquiet. True, he...

ARTAMAG': Schumann de l’ombre, Cédric Pescia

Participant à une intégrale du piano de Schumann qui parvient aujourd’hui à son sixième volume, Cédric Pescia assemble ici, pour l’essentiel, des partitions peu courues. Cela suffirait à faire du double album un ajout parfait à toute discographie schumannienne, d’autant que les cycles d’Études sur les Caprices de Paganini y sont enlevés avec aut...

Die Harfen-Fee

Wie niemand sonst in unseren Tagen verkörperte sie ihr Instrument; mit ihrer zierlichen Gestalt und ihren langen blonden Haaren schien Ursula Holliger geradewegs dem Märchenbuch entstiegen. Und das Märchen wurde Wirklichkeit, wenn sie in die Saiten griff und ihrem Instrument jene silberhellen Klänge entlockte, für die sie berühmt war. Am 8. Juni...
