CD Reviews

Debut of debuts
D. Graham | Center Harbor, NH United States | 10/23/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I have been in the classical music industry for over 20 years and have never come across such a powerful debut recording. In terms of artistry, which is very rare these days, you will always find it in Alex Slobodyanik's playing on this recording. His Chopin Sonata is mesmerising and his Papillons are among the best on record. His Kinderszenen demonstrates his virtuosity and breathtaking poetry. Such heartfelt playing, this debut by an enourmous young talent should not be taken lightly."
A rare talent
Sarah | New York, NY | 10/03/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I usually don't review the items I buy, but in this particular case I couldn't help but log in and put in my five cents. Perhaps it is because of how shockingly off mark the previous reviewer is in regards to this disc. To start off it is possibly the best recording of Schumann's Papillons I've ever heard. Imaginative, daring and fresh. In regards to Chopin even though I would have loved a bit more punch in the Polonaise, the Sonata is among the most powerful on record.

This kid is no joke and I truly hope he makes another one soon."
