Pure pianistic bravura

The music of Mieczysław Weinberg has experienced a remarkable reappraisal in recent years: long overshadowed by his friend Dmitri Sjostakovitsj, his own voice is resonating ever more powerfully today. Hamelin shows his most subtle piano artistry in the refined sound world of Debussy. The recital culminates in pure pianistic bravura: Earl Wild’s virtuoso etudes on songs by George Gershwin. Sparkling, jazzy and spectacular.
