Frederick
Moyer: Bach: Partita No. 5 in G Major/
Rachmaninoff: Variations on a Theme by Corelli |
 Frederick
Moyer shines on his GM recording debut and offers a
mature, balanced reading of two cornerstones of the
piano literature.
The Partitas of Bach marked an
artistic culmination in the development of their
form. The Variations of Rachmaninoff
resembles his immensely popular Rhapsody on a Theme
of Paganini which followed two years later. |
“His
Bach is elegant and sparkling... In the
Rachmaninoff Variations, he displays velvety
tone, producing mysterious moments contrasted with
magisterial virtuosity.”
