Marc-Andre Hamelin (piano)About
As a recent critic of Hamelin’s live performance of the B minor sonata remarked, ‘Hamelin starts where most other pianists leave off … such was his control that frequently it seemed as though an extra dimension were being added, the music’s teeming internal life clarified by his ability to voice the inner parts’.
The disc is completed by some of Chopin’s greatest single-movement works; the contrasting two Nocturnes of Op.27, the extraordinarily colouristic Berceuse Op.57 and the monumental Barcarolle in F sharp major.
We think this is one of the most authoritative and important Chopin discs to have appeared in recent years—an unmissable release.
