5.0 out of 5 stars Lankov is OUTSTANDING!, January 20, 2000

This review is from: The Piano Music of George Gershwin - Jeff Lankov, Pianist (Audio CD)

Mr. Lankov got it right! His interpretation of Gershwin doesn't sound like an over-practiced piano rag. He captures the spirit of Gershwin in a way that takes you back to the early 1900's. His performance of "Rhapsody in Blue" is powerful and dramatic. You haven't heard Gershwin like this in a long time.

Definately worth a listen!

Bravo Mr. Lankov, Bravo!

What a relief to finally hear Gershwin's piano music played with flawless technique AND real jazz style all at once! Mr. Lankov's interpretations of the Gershwin solo rep are without a doubt the best I have ever heard. What will his next album be?
