Has anyone else heard this fine Russian pianist's recordings?
A friend gave me a remarkable disc of Schumann pieces including a wonderful performance of the Humoreske - best I've ever heard - Carnaval and the Clara Wieck vars., but I believe his reputation as a performer is based upon his recordings of Rachmaninov, Medtner and Shostakovitch. Perhaps his dedication to teaching has kept him from the concert front-pages but he is by any standard a great pianist imv, well worth seeking out.
