The performance is an awesome display of keyboard command...The recorded sound does gorgeous justice both to the playing itself, and to the surrounding Vienna Musikvereinsaal acoustic.

About
Since his debut recording released in 1997, Arcadi Volodos, is celebrated as a keyboard genius, and is without a doubt one of today’s most outstanding and internationally interesting pianists. His unlimited virtuosity along with his unique sense of timing, colour and poetry made him a romantic narrator of intensive stories.
On March 1st 2009 Volodos played at the Musikverein in Vienna, and subsequently toured the Vienna concert program in several German cities such as Essen, Düsseldorf, Berlin, Stuttgart, Hamburg, Baden-Baden, Schwetzigen, and has received sensational reviews.

...the sense that technically Volodos is in complete command, and that the piano is not in pain - even at the most extreme moments - is extraordinarily compelling. And through all the handfuls of notes he never loses sight of the work's form...Volodos is absolutely up there with the best of them
