What great music!

"Nice kitschy feel about it. Kantorow and orchestra balance the pianist nicely with their sense of humour. Recommended just for the music."

A pleasure to listen to.

"I heard the first two selections played on a classical station that broadcasts over the web. Both selections became instant favorites of mine. The suite in D has a haunting beauty (I love the intro), and the concerto no 2 in G has a wonderfully playful style. Both are a pleasure to listen to. I'm looking forward to hearing the concerto no 1 in D when I get my CD."
