A lovely recording

"I was stunned by the dramatic expression displayed in the Bach-Busoni Chaconne in D-minor and Schumann's Kreisleriana. Felcman elegant and deeply felt playing uncovers details that eluded even the greatest pianist of the past. The Rorem and the Guastavino pieces are rarely if ever recorded, and Felcman plays them beautifully. If you are a lover of quality piano music, you shouldn't miss this CD!"
A Jewel of a CD

"This artist has the inspiration, masterful technique and warm engagement with the music of the great pianists of the past. This recording has an unusual and thrilling variety of works beautifully played from Scarlatti, Bach-Busoni, Schumann, Guastavino, and Rorem. This CD is awesome!"
What a find!

"This is one of my greatest discoveries. From Scarlatti to Rorem this CD pulses with lyricism, deep & powerful feeling, and exuberance. 78 minutes of pure musical bliss. Marta Felcman is one of the greats--and I mean Argerich, Perahia, and Uchida kind of great. I recommend this CD wholeheartedly."
