Description
|
|
|
|
Displaying an "evident sympathy for both the contemplative and the impassioned sides of music" (Fanfare), Raphael performs Manuel de Falla's "Ritual Fire Dance" from El amor brujo; Bach's Chaconne in D Minor; Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsody, "Dante fragment," "Chasse neige" ("Blizzard"), the twelfth and the last of his "Études d'exécution transcendante" ("Transcendental Studies"), and his transcription of Schumann's love song, "Widmung" ("Dedication"); as well as Mendelssohn's Rondo capriccioso in E Major, Op. 14, Sousa's "Stars & Stripes Forever," and more. "Raphael's a world-class-pianist, a triumphant artist, a mesmerizing talent and he deserves a standing ovation wherever he plays."—NYTimes
