Steinway Legends: Vladimir Ashkenazy

Mike von R | Southport NC USA | 01/23/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"First of all, this is very beautiful music that is being played by a true artist. Second, the artist has a wonderful feel for the composers. Third, if you have had a very bad day, put this music on, dim the lights, get comfortable and let the stress melt away."
