Reviews
One couldn't fault Denis Linnik's Schumann Études symphoniques. Each note, phrase and gesture was firmly in place, together with a winged Finale that didn't overstay its welcome as it often does. However, the individual qualities of Linnik's pianism blossomed throughout his Scriabin Fifth Sonata and a coruscating Ligeti 'L'escalier du diable'.
