CD Reviews

She's Got The Chops to Play Liszt

Douglas Doak | Yellowknife, NWT, Canada | 01/11/2005

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Per Rick Phillips of CBC Radio's Sound Advice, in his review broadcast on January 8th 2005, Valerie Tryon "has the chops" to play Liszt, as well as the sensitive, nuanced playing to bring all the feeling Liszt wrote into his music to the listener. Small cavil - the upper register of her piano is a little thin, unbalancing the contrast to the full, rich lower register of the piano."
