Yes I have and it's very good, too. I shall be listening to it some more as I'm somewhat unfamiliar with it.Quote:

Kipnis was one of the great baroque maestros of the previous (pre-HIP) generation.
Fabulous playing & great sound quality. :)

Interesting and enjoyable. The flute piece is a bit light, the rest is intriguing.

Katsaris gets off to a spongey start in Scherzo #1 --- then he settles down and :eek: :drool: Fantastic Chopin playing, shame he didn't do a retake on the start of the 1st Scherzo!
Ah - I see that I am not alone in my admiration! - some rave reviews here!

My god - what a pianist.
Her Bach is perfect, her Chopin sublime, her Scarlatti has a wonderful perky clarity.
Umm, I'm not too sure what to make the the Bartok and Prokofiev sonatas :scratch: ... not really my sort of music.

After hearing his revelatory Chopin Scherzos and Ballades (reported on previously) I thought I'd sample Katsaris on Schubert and Beethoven. The Beethoven is pretty good, although not a 'major' piece, but the sublime Schubert sonata is a real disappointment. Ah well, it's kind of gratifying to know that he doesn't excel at everything! :eyebrows:

Hey, this is a bit of a surprise. A fine performance and (once the volume is turned up to realistic levels) a very fine recording.
I may well investigate more of this Naxos Mahler cycle.
...and her Rachmaninov, oh my!Quote:

Jaw dropping!
