5.0 out of 5 stars BEAUTY AND SUBTLETY UNITE WITH COMMAND, 20 Nov 2009
I had not heard Anderszewski play much prior to this purchase and I was really impressed by both the command of his playing and the subtlety that he brings to such a broad range of music.

I was particularly won over by the Janacek, which he makes sound closer to the Impressionists, than I have previously heard it played before and which has a magical evanescent quality which is really mesmerising. I also loved the Bach which demonstrates the perfect fusion of heart and head.

Is there any downside. If anything although the sound is very good and natural I found the very enthusiastic Carnegie Hall audience a little intrusive after the third hearing although the magic of the live occasion really lifts this master pianist.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Magic of a Master Pianist, 4 Nov 2009
Do we live in a new Golden Age of pianism? I believe so, when listening to so many comparatively young players performing to-day: Kissin, Hélène Grimaud, Klára Würtz, Lang Lang, Andsnes, Hamelin, Paul Lewis and many many more. Some listeners,I presume, have a certain faiblesse for the young Polish pianist Piotr Anderszewski and consider him as primus inter pares in this generation of brilliant players, due to the sensitive and well thought-out interpretations of his. No doubt, there is something of that Rubinsteinian mixture of consciousness and inexplicable intuition in his playing that is extremely impressive and makes him outstanding.
This record of a Carnegie Hall recital is an exuberant testimony of his qualities, demonstrating his amazing versability. Starting with Bach's Partita No 2 in C minor, his precise playing of Baroque keyboard music is combined with such a delicious feeling for the nuances of the score that I think I have never heard a Bach piece so satisfyingly played on the piano before.
His Schumann, in Faschingsschwank aus Wien, is more vital and dynamic than romantically dreamful and esoteric, and that is much to its advantage. He undoubtedly makes Leos Janácek a more significant and important keyboard composer than usual, playing the four ravishing pieces called In the Mists. And his Beethoven Piano Sonata No 31 in A flat major is so overwhelmingly well played that I immediately felt I longed for a complete Beethoven cycle from Anderszewski's hands - though I am not quite sure complete recordings are his way.
Bartók's rarely heard Three Hungarian Folksongs from the Csik District concludes this admirable recital, immensely well composed as it is. Two discs with a total playing time of about 85 minutes - it seems scanty value for the money. But I can assure you that these records are worth every nickel, in whatever currency you pay it. And more than that!
