"... this release’s interpretive care and high sonic standards deserve serious consideration ..."
- ClassicsToday.com
"Here is playing of real poetic poetic allure bathed in a golden piano tone."
- Gramophone
"Four Stars. Arghamanyan is at the top of her game, as is the splendid Berlin Radio Symphony Orchestra and their young conductor. PentaTone provides wondrous sound ..."
- Audiophile Audition
"The orchestra play convincingly throughout this disc demonstrating keen concentration and splendid musicianship. The orchestral colours are broad in range and spectacularly vivid."
- MusicWeb International
Armenian-born pianist Nareh Arghamanyan, admitted to the Vienna Conservatory at the age of 14 (the youngest ever!), earned glowing reviews in 2012 for her debut album, a Rachmaninov recital that ClassicsToday.com awarded 10 out of 10 and uses as a benchmark recording. Arghamanyan follows up that impressive debut with this release, an all-Liszt programme with the Berlin Radio Symphony Orchestra under Alain Altinoglu. In addition to the two piamo concertos, Arghamanyan presents Liszt's Totentanz and the Fantasia on Hungarian Folk Themes.
