Liszt - Lazaridis - The Scotsman

For his debut disc with Linn, young Greek pianist George-Emmanuel Lazaridis packs a mighty punch with a torturous coupling of Lizst's epic Sonata in B minor and the six Grandes Etudes de Paganini. His pianism is brilliantly tactile - not a note skimmed over or misplaced. Physical strength plays its part in these performances, which are sturdy and firmly structured. As to whether the heavily-resonant production is a good thing, that's a matter of taste.
