About

In 1962 Stephen Plaistow wrote of the Liszt E flat Polonaise on this set that ‘the playing of the E major Polonaise is outstanding: it has bravura, exquisite timing and poise, colour, delicacy, plenty of rhythmic character and an air of ebullient pomp that is quite irresistible.

These recordings are from much later, the digital era indeed, but they reflect the promise felt by Stephen Plaistow, in 1967 this time, that ‘As one listens to his playing one senses at all times the intelligence and taste that lie behind it. The future of fine piano-playing seems assured while there are young pianists like him and Vladimir Ashkenazy around with maybe 40 years of playing ahead of them: a splendid thought!'
