CD Reviews

The ceaseless torch of genius!

Hiram Gomez Pardo | Valencia, Venezuela | 05/08/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"
Simon Barere's art piano playing has surmounted the barriers of the most praised adjectives. His fire, passion, demonica technique and sublime musicality became a legendary pianist.

If these recordings by themselves carve in relief his sumptuous and sheer pianism, I just can figure out how it must have been to have watched him in live sessions.

This set contains a true tour de force in what mercurial and wild phrasing and fingering concern. Barere is simply superb along every one of these performances.

By no reason you should miss this album. Go for it, because it's part of the history.
