24 Preludes Op. 34 NI 5026
“This is the sort of record that could and
should achieve classic status. The repertoire
is enterprising, the performance of a superbly
audacious and improvisatory brilliance....
It is as if she were improvising, creating the
music on the spot, causing you to catch your
breath with her daring, her contempt, so to
speak for the use of a safety net.
It is some years since Marta Deyanova, the
Bulgarian pianist, appeared in London and,
clearly, we have been missing an artist of
the most exceptional power and individuality.”
