Suave sophisticated Chopin
08/13/2000
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I've long enjoyed the music of Chopin and have listened to many interpreters. I would count Frederic Chiu among the best. His playing is crisp and clean, but with a lovely sense of lyricism and flair for nuance. The Op. 10 etudes are gorgeous and sound new. It's a treat to find the rondos together and performed so exquisitely. I highly recommend his latest recording, Chopin's Complete Mazurkas on Harmonia Mundi, as well. Both CD's offer brilliant piano sound."
Original and interesting.

"Frederic Chiu gives a strange fairy like rendition of Chopin's Etudes op.10 perfoming them with marked nuances, colours and originality and a dazzling technique. The result is really interesting though personally i love more the classical style applied to these pieces (Boris Berezovsky, Juana Zayas, Nikolay Lugansky, Andrei Gavrilov and Jean Frederic Neuburger). It is also really pleasant his performance on Rondos. A great cd!"
I'm a Chiu fan now

"Superb renditions of these etudes. I've been listening to them over and over. Chiu's playing is clean and gorgeous. Bravo!"
