Norman Dello Joio Vol. 1 and Vol. 2

03/10/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"In college I had the honor of performing chorals works by Norman Dello Joio and was completely captivated with them. When I realized that he also had composed so many pieces for piano I was excited to hear and to enjoy. But I got even more than I anticipated his piano music is great. He is one of the great lyric voices of the twentieth century. Debra Torok has obviously spent a good deal of time with this music and composer. Her playing is one of the sharing between intimate friends. The mastery that Torok displayed in the Capriccio was fantastic. I sensed the sensitivity and feeling put into every note. This type of performance has been sadly lacking in the piano world. we as listeners not only want technic we want passion, feling and commitment and Torok gives it to us. Thank You for this wonderful collection of music."
