Chopin,
By
This review is from: Chopin: Preludes & Nocturnes (Audio CD)
Beautiful. Lively. Somber. Deathly. This is a superb recording of a superb pianist. This album is very emotional, flowing from joy to rage, and from rage to the truest depths of depression. This is an album that will stay with me for the rest of my life, and I will always be partial to the delicate touch of Barto's fingertips. The one thing that I do not like about this album is Barto's playing of the famous "Raindrop" piece. Ashkenazy's interpretation is by far more appropriate in my opinion. Buy this CD! You will not be disappointed!

Tzimon Barto plays Chopin,
By Brad C. (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Chopin: Preludes & Nocturnes (Audio CD)
Twenty-four Preludes, three Nocturnes, Contabile in B-flat major, and Contredanse in G-flat major all totaling 65 minutes are included here. Barto plays them all with style and emotion, but a bit more energy on some would be to my liking. The quality of the sound and the dynamic qualities of the recording are very good. I recommend this album; it is an especially good value at the discounted price.

Magnificent,

This review is from: Chopin: Preludes & Nocturnes (Audio CD)
I was unfamiliar with Tzimon Barto until introduced to his work by a new Amazon friend. I'm very grateful, indeed.
These Chopin preludes and nocturnes, to which I listened as a young woman on Vladimir Horowitz LPs, are extremely well executed here, with the additional advantage that the CD is available at an unbelievably low cost. If you love Chopin, specifically, or classical compositions for piano in general, I can't recommend this recording highly enough.
