Home Classical Court

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

And three that sounded interesting ....

I went through the ten semifinalists, listening for as long as I could before my interest switched off, which in many cases was minutes.....

The three I wanted to hear more of were:
Ariel Lanyi
Hyunjin Roh
Xiaolu Zang

I enjoyed all three. I was quite taken with Hyunjin Roh in Stravinsky's Firebird and her Schumann was good too. She can certainly turn on the gas in the big pieces. Ravel's La Valse was a real tour de force! This unassuming looking dame likes it loud and exciting.

Xiaolu Zang played a good Schubert sonata and a sensitive and imaginative Scriabin Sonata 4.

Lanyi played some good Debussy and an interesting Szymanowski Variations.

Can't pick a winner but I feel these are the contenders. For thrills it's Roh, but the other two are both good.
