PICTURES Reframed


“In Andsnes's hands, both these great cycles, utterly different though they are, feel like first-hand, vital and highly personal experiences and it's these qualities that make this disc so compelling.” --Gramophone Magazine, December 2009

“Leif Ove Andsnes' performance here has much to recommend it. There's his delicate, fluttering touch, almost like a hammer dulcimer, on the "Samuel Goldenberg and Schmuyle" section, and particularly the way the gossipy, chattering tone of "Limoges – Le Marche" is sustained until it founders on the funereal opening chords of the "Catacombs".” --The Independent, 27th November 2009 ****



“Andsnes's performance is one of coruscating force...He sharpens the dynamic contrasts and always underlines the savagery and strangeness of the Pictures in their original piano form. Buy this CD with confidence.” --The Times, 27th November 2009 ****
