‘A mixture of muscular virtuosity and radiant reflection marks the middle part of the first movement. Her performance of the slow movment reveals a profound understanding of the relationship between the solo parts and the multi-faceted delicacy of Dvořák’s orchestration, while that of the finale confirms that this is one of the great ensemble performances of this concerto available.’ Jan Smaczny
