Hannu Alasaarela (piano)About
"When the pianist shakes the Goldberg variations on his debut album, he puts himself in the nose of such a pound that it doesn't matter what's better. The recordings of the Richters, Gilels, Goulds and others are the standard to which everyone is ruthlessly compared. Hannu Alasaarela survives the comparison handsomely. The playing is self-voiced and musical. The sophisticated use of rubato is absolutely adorable!" - Risto Nordell, Suomen Kuvalehti
"When you have this new release in your hand you are a bit suspicious, but the longer you listen to Hannu Alasaarela's playing, the greater his infatuation and - dare we say it - feeling of happiness grow. In short, the interpretation is characterized by melodiousness, very richly decorated. Counterpoint sings. The piano plays gently and richly. The looseness remains even in the virtuoso variations at the end. The chromatic wanderings of the 25th variation are like the suffering of a crucified man in the heat of midday." - Julkka Isopuro HS 19.6.2023
