Exquisite

"... If you love Rachmaninov, this disc is a MUST HAVE. It is one of 3 CD's I have purchased within the past 3 months in an effort to obtain an emotionally satisfying recording of Rach's Moment Musical No.4 Although I would have preferred a slightly slower tempo, Shelley plays the piece with FLAIR and PASSION, yet his playing remains clean and accurate throughout. His is a powerful and beautifully crafted performance. The rest of the disc is just as satisfying. The bonus is that because of this purchase, I have "discovered" a most wonderful interpreter of Rachmaninov's piano music. I can't wait to add Shelley's recording of Rachmaninov's Transcriptions to my collection.

"This is a program that is somewhat under-represented in the catalogue. I own lots of piano music, tons of Richter, the Rachmaninoff by the composer and Ashkenazy and Gavrilov, Lazar Berman, etc etc etc. I also listen to everything in piano from Bach through Prokofiev... somehow I find myself brought back to this album every so often, and I don't know what to say about it other than it is gorgeous music interpreted with refinement and lots of feeling. Absolutely beautiful, one of the jewels in my collection."
