This man is extraordinary. His perception of music absolutely astounds listeners. He is able to play with such delicacy and attention, creating music that can be georgeously soft or brisk at turns. His passion exudes from everything he plays, transforming notes to melodies and sounds that take breath away from everybody that has the priviledge to listen. I recommend this cd with all my heart but, if you are lucky enough, see this artist in live concert, because he is undoubtedly one of the greatest pianists of our time.

Having heard Ioudenitch in two live concerts and comparing to this recording, he is getting better and better as time passes. This recording shows his extremely sensitive musicality and the passion of his live performances on a couple of tracks. The beauty of his interpretations brings great delight to the heart. He is definitely not a piano banger, but a truely gifted musician whose technique is quite superior. I hope he is recorded in the near future with some of his most recent work, it is something to look forward to!!!

A rare discovery for a music competition. This artist gives definition to the word "riveting" . An extraordinary and fascinating musical personality.Will most likely soon be widely regarded as one of the "greats"

Stanislav Ioudenitch is one of the best. This CD leaves off his version of Tchaikovsky's first piano concerto. But it is still a great CD.

Stanislav is extraordinary talent! You will find his performance amazing if you love lyrical expressionist style. He can bring extra feelings and passion to every piece of music. But if you regard Glen Gould the most, you can be disappointed.

It's not worth listening to; don't waste your money.
