CD Reviews

Mapp is a true interpreter of this repertoire.

10/12/1999

(5 out of 5 stars)

"The piano music of Enrique Granados is, in the words of Pau Casals, "the true representation of the art of Spain." Richard Mapp, the New Zealand pianist, here finds the exact colours and tempi Granados would have wished, and the recorded sound is true and expansive without being overdone.In the "Danza Lenta," Richard Mapp captures on the wing the smouldering passion of the work, and in the pieces for young students, the simplicity of the nature of the composer. The virtuosic "Allegro di Concierto" poses no problems for this performer. In all the choices of repertoire are most representative of the composer's kaleidoscope of styles. The beautiful "Escenas Romanticas" which form the core of this recording have not been better recorded. These are performances not to be missed."
