Benjamin Grosvenor's Liszt recording

Classical Court

From Perotin to Prokofiev (and beyond), performed by Caruso to Khatia, it's all here.

I saw several rave reviews before I listened to the recording. The piano has a rather metallic sound and seems to lack deep bass. The Sonata in B Minor just seemed to take forever! Lots of very slow moments that impeded the flow of the performance. I'm sticking with my favorites: Gilels, Arrau, Gunnar Johanesen.
