Following her magnificent album of Lyapunov’s Transcendental Etudes, Hirose continues with playing of extraordinary grace and fluency. The pearly gleam of her sonority tells you she is incapable of making an ugly sound. Finely recorded, this disc is a winner.
March 2020
This is a superb introduction to the solo piano music of Moritz Moszkowski. He is a composer who … is now in great need of revival. I can think of no better person to begin this resurgence than Etsuko Hirose.
