Reviews
“Throughout he simply mesmerises the listener with playing of extraordinary brilliance and luminosity… Without doubt the most arresting performance of all ist hat of the Second Sonata… he has the absolute measure of the music’s emotional core… To be sure, there are many other fine recordings of this work… but none approach the piece with such immediacy and sheer physical excitement as Trpceski.”
BBC Music Magazine, Disc of the Month, April 2005
“Rachmaninov’s Second Sonata suits him perfectly, for he possesses precisely the right combination of searing technique, structural command and carefully calculated flamboyance to meet all the work’s demands… The selection of preludes and transcriptions is equally absorbing.”
***** The Guardian, January 2005
