The World's Best Chopin Interpreter?

"Gabriela Montero is the best Chopin player I have ever heard. She even surpasses the great pianist Leif Ove Andsnes which is especially evident in the slow passages. Chopin might have played just like this!"

Feathers and gold

"Montero can both beat the piano to death and fly on it as no one can. She chooses some dark pieces by Chopin here, but it's her golden feathering of the Etudes that are breath-taking. She plays with such authority that she leaves other Chopin interpreters in the dust. If you want to hear Chopin played like Chopin, listen to Rubenstein. If you want to hear it played like a goddess, this is an album to get."
