International Piano | April 2023
Our April cover features Yeol Eum Son, who has recorded the complete Mozart Piano Sonatas for Naïve. Shirley Apthorp meets her to discuss her approach to this great music and what it means to her. Leslie Howard celebrates his 75th birthday this month, and we catch up with him to talk about a lifetime of championing the music of Liszt. Kirill Gerstein shares his thoughts on recording Rachmaninov, and Robert Levin returns to the studio to complete a Mozart concerto cycle began over two decades ago.
In addition, Bryce Morrison considered the legacy of the Golden-Age great Ignaz Friedman, whose imaginative freedom and recreative license captures a bygone era yet can divide opinion. We highlight the upcoming talent of 20-year-old Hungarian pianist Misi Boros, and Murray McLachlan continues his series of guides aimed at readers whose own playing has lapsed. Our reviews cover new recordings by Benjamin Grosvenor, Yuja Wang, Rafal Blechacz, Garrick Ohlson and Peter Donohoe, live concerts from Pavel Kolesnikov and Alexandre Kantorow, and Stephen Hough’s new book Enough.
