CD Reviews

Almost perfect...

(4 out of 5 stars)

"I first encountered Dejan Lazic from a couple of WGBH-FM podcasts of his recitals. I purchased this CD a year or so ago.



The Valses are well-played. Tombeau is wonderful, save for the very end of the last movement, where he stumbles over the climactic bars. When he is good, he is very, very good - the little preludes/postludes which bookmark this recording are breathtaking, making me stop in my tracks whenever I hear them.



Some folks might think that he plays some of these pieces a little too fast, and sometimes too loud, but I'm willing to forego that criticism, and note that he attempts to communicate his feelings about the pieces through his playing - one does not forget that this is a living, breathing human being putting his stamp on the music laid out before him."
