CD Reviews

Fanny Mendelssohn On a Par with her brother Felix

Allan R. Klumpp | Weston, Massachusetts, USA | 12/31/2006

(5 out of 5 stars)

"In this recording of Fanny Mendelssohn Piano Music, the music is equal to the finest of Felix Mendelssohn, and Beatrice Rauchs's performance is in the class of Maria Joao Pires, whose performance of the Chopin Nocturnes has been rated by BBC Music Magazine as the Benchmark. In the magazine's rating system, both the Performance and the Sound of this recording deserve the top five-star ratings."
