Our Take

Ahhh, Vladimir Ashkenazy, the charming virtuoso who can make the piano sing like a nightingale on a moonlit night. His latest offering "Ashkenazy Plays Chopin, Rachmaninov, Liszt, & Prokofiev" is a delightful whirlwind tour through the works of four giants of classical music.

From the melancholic beauty of Chopin's Nocturnes to the thunderous power of Rachmaninov's Piano Concertos, Ashkenazy effortlessly navigates through a musical landscape that is both haunting and exhilarating. His fingers dance across the keys with a precision and passion that is truly awe-inspiring.

But it's not just the classics that Ashkenazy excels at. His interpretation of Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsodies is a masterclass in virtuosity, with each note shimmering like a champagne bubble on a summer's day. And let's not forget Prokofiev, whose explosive Piano Sonatas are brought to life with a fiery intensity that is as thrilling as it is captivating.

In conclusion, "Ashkenazy Plays Chopin, Rachmaninov, Liszt, & Prokofiev" is a must-listen for any classical music aficionado. Ashkenazy's talent and artistry shine through in every note, making this album a true gem in the crown of classical music. So sit back, relax, and let the maestro take you on a musical journey you won't soon forget. Brava, Mr. Ashkenazy, brava!
