Tremendously entertaining

Brandon H. Borrman | New York | 12/07/1999

(5 out of 5 stars)

"A great improvement over the Chandos recordings of the two concertos. Here the flexability of Gerhard's writing for strings, the magic of his ear truly comes across. Unlike the Bambert, the harpsichord is brilliantly focused and clear. The terror and violence that is hidden in the piano concerto in Bambert's recording is here realized to its full chilling effect."
