CD Reviews

Good value for money

Leslie Richford | Selsingen, Lower Saxony | 10/26/2004

(4 out of 5 stars)

"I am neither a pianist nor a Schumann expert, but I felt that, on the whole, this disc had earned its three-star rating in the 'Penguin Good CD Guide'. The recorded sound is not brilliant, but perfectly acceptable, and young Austrian pianist Stefan Vladar provides some fine playing with occasional real highlights: the 'Anhang Variation 5', for example, is full of poignancy, the 'Finale: Allegro brillante' is just that, and the 'Arabesque' Op. 18 seems to me to have just the right 'feminine' touch. On the other hand, there were moments when I thought Vladar could have put more nuances into the music or brought out even further the 'typical Schumann' naiveté of this music. But on the whole, this is, for a budget-priced disc, good value for money."
