CD Reviews

A Great Brace of Discs...

Sébastien Melmoth | Hôtel d'Alsace, PARIS | 12/01/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

".

The main course here is Mussorgsky's Pictures. Well!--here nicely done. Richter is fine, but Béroff is clean and clear, not excessive.

Nice little pieces by Mussorgsky--an echt-Russian type!

Bonus Balakirev--also an echt-Russian type. See too: Balakirev: Piano Music (Complete) [Box Set].
