CD ReviewsA very impressive interpretation, albeit a little "willful" Holger Lippold | Leipzig | 04/23/2009 (4 out of 5 stars) "This complete edition of Rachmaninoff's (...v's?) piano concertos is certainly a good one. It is a very clear recording with excellent spatial acoustics. The piano sound appears comparatively tinny, but that may be a personal impression. The interpretation is really touching, in some aspects the best version I ever heard. Unfortunately, the soloist deviates from the score in one of the most beautiful passages of the 4th concerto (end of 2nd movement). So this recording is probably not the best choice for people who have internalized every note of this opus. Nonetheless, the edition is recommendable because it conveys the spirit of this music very impressively."
