Description:

Garrick Ohlsson in Poland. A captivating all-Schubert program! Garrick Ohlsson, one of the leading American pianists of our time and the winner of the 8th International Chopin Piano Competition in 1970, has close ties to Eastern Europe and Poland, and has recorded an all-Schubert program for the DUX label in Poland. The lyrical and dramatic Schubert, with its delicate touch that makes Schubert's melodies, such as the theme at the beginning of "Sonata No. 13," sound beautiful and appealing, and the hard forte sound that shines like a black diamond, is a masterpiece that fully demonstrates Ohlsson's unique characteristics. This is one of the American master's undiscovered masterpieces. Tokyo M-Plus
