Product Description
CD Description
This specially recorded recital features the beautiful young Russian pianist, Valentina Igoshina performing much of the music contained in Tony Palmer's classic film: The Strange Case of Delfina Potocka - The Mystery of Chopin.
Igoshina is an internationally acclaimed pianist who is best known for her interpretations of Chopin and Rachmaninoff. She has appeared as a soloist with many famous orchestras including the Royal Concertegebouw Orchestra, BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, London Philharmonic Orchestra and The Hallé.
In an article in Gramophone (September, 2008) "Chopin Reprogrammed and a Vital Young Russian Relishes the Task," Bryce Morrison said "she relishes every aspect of Chopin's enchanting urbanity, his alternating exuberance and introspection, his light and shade." Her recording 'Chopin: Complete Waltzes' was chosen by Classic FM magazine as its November 2008 'Disc of the Month'.

What she plays, she plays very well.
19 Oct 2010
Valentina demonstrated through her youtube videos that she knows what means the word "interpretation".
In music, more important than speed is interpretation (dynamics, rhythm, phrasing and mainly good "taste").
On this "popular" album, Valentina delivers once more fine chopinian renditions.
Very good!
