Steven Osborne’s assured mastery in a wide range of repertoire continues to expand and amaze. At first hearing, the pianist seems to be imparting a fresh spin to these frequently recorded sonatas. Closer scrutiny, however, reveals the extent to which Osborne takes Prokofiev’s texts seriously. ... Osborne is at his best in Sonata No 8. ... no pianist in my experience has matched Osborne’s finale for acuity of touch, pinpoint transparency and airborne suppleness.
From first electrifying note-punch to last, with so much poetry and poignancy in between, this is a tour de force of pianism highlighting what seems more than ever like the great sonata sequence of the 20th century. ... Osborne’s choices in tempos and tone colour seem infallible. ... this is legendary stuff.
