Our Take

The latest offering from the enigmatic Grigory Solokov, "Purcell & Mozart," is a delightful blend of two musical giants that would make even the most serious classical music aficionado crack a smile. Solokov's unique interpretation of these timeless composers is nothing short of genius, with each note infused with his own quirky charm.

The opening track, a rendition of Purcell's "Dido's Lament," is a hauntingly beautiful masterpiece that showcases Solokov's mastery of the piano. His fingers glide effortlessly across the keys, breathing new life into this classic aria. It's as if Purcell himself has come back to life and decided to collaborate with an eccentric Russian pianist.

Moving on to Mozart's "Piano Sonata No. 11 in A major," Solokov takes us on a rollercoaster ride of emotions. From the playful staccatos to the haunting adagios, Solokov's interpretation is nothing short of mesmerizing. It's as if Mozart himself is whispering in our ears, guiding us through the intricacies of his masterpiece.

Overall, "Purcell & Mozart" is a must-listen for any music lover looking to inject some humor and whimsy into their classical repertoire. Grigory Solokov proves once again that he is a force to be reckoned with in the music industry, and we can't wait to see what he does next. Bravi, Mr. Solokov, bravi.
