Synopsis

Album Description
Alexander Paley, born in Moldavia in 1956, brings to these varied works a calm and even-tempered approach. Although there are certainly virtuoso episodes, these are inner-directed and contemplative performances. The centerpiece of this recital is Brahms's Paganini Variations, Op. 35. Based upon the famous A minor Caprice, its kaleidoscopic explorations are revealed with intimacy and emotion in Paley's interpretation. An added bonus is the extremely popular encore piece, David and Goliath, by Hans Christian Bartel. This recording is valuable, and is recommended warmly. Made in cooperation with Blüthner Pianos, featuring the well-articulated and colorful registration of the Blüthner concert grand.
