A Sanroma item
07/05/2000
(3 out of 5 stars)

"The reason you'd buy this is for Sanroma the pianist, an artist of great insight, technical fluency and interpretative acumen.Surely he's the only one to make the slaggardly, empty and corny Grofe concerto worth hearing--once. Grofe himself is a mediocre conductor, and without lending any composer insights, he also makes the Rochester Phil sound nearly amateur, surely never its status, ever.The Gershwin is superb, Sanroma imparting a great pleasure in playing, the authorative Gershwin counductor Steinberg in top form...and the Pittsburghers faring up to their standard, unlike their poor Rochester bretheren.Half a disk can't be considered a good buy, but the whole isn't exactly in the woof-house, either."
