Editorial Reviews

Alain Planès has put together a most intelligent program. It moves from the involving music of the Impromptus to the very deeply affecting Sonata, and then gives us a charming but lightweight series of Ländler to return us to the real world. Not many CDs are this well planned. Planès's playing is just a small notch below the highest level (Artur Schnabel, Radu Lupu). He hasn't quite their subtlety of expression, but he still makes the music emotionally convincing throughout and he maintains a singing tone. Especially recommended to those who like to listen through a CD at one sitting. --Leslie Gerber
