Études: Piano Music of
Liszt and Rachmaninoff Robert Silverman, piano
In a world that sees wunderkinds of the piano come and go, Robert Silverman
has reached a level of musical and technical authority that can only
be accomplished after years of deep commitment to the instrument and
its vast literature. Many aspects of Silverman's playing are frequently
noted: a polished technique, an extraordinary range of tonal palette,
an uncanny ability to sing his way into the heart of a phrase, and his
probing interpretation of the most complex works in the repertoire.
Mr. Silverman has received a Grand Prix du Disque from the Liszt Society
of Budapest for his recording of Liszt's piano music. He is an ideal
interpreter of these famous pieces.
