Nelson Goerner reviews
Brahms: Piano Concerto No. 2 in B flat
Nelson Goerner; NHK Symphony Orchestra/Tadaaki Otaka (Alpha)
Nelson Goerner's Chopin Nocturnes is an 'outstanding new release'
From Claudio Arrau and Fou T’song to Ivan Moravec and Maria João Pires, the Chopin discography is rich in sets of the complete Nocturnes, any of which can stand as a ‘library choice’. But this outstanding new release from Nelson Goerner proves that there is always room for another. While listening to Goerner, no one could reasonably claim to be missing any of these greats, so complete is his grasp of Chopin’s style.
