(2CD) 布拉姆斯: 早期與晚期鋼琴作品集
利爾.威廉斯 鋼琴
His 16th album with Signum Classics, the Welsh pianist, Llyr Williams, brings a profound musical intelligence to his work as soloist, accompanist and chamber musician. His new album of compositions by Johannes Brahms offers a comprehensive exploration of Brahms' introspective and expressive piano works. In addition the album features Variations on a theme by R Schumann, Op 9 – harking back to Williams' celebrated album of works by Robert Schumann (SIGCD756) released in January 2024. ★★★★ “… the performances are always immaculate, their working out totally lucid; it's unquestionably thoughtful, authoritative playing.” – The Guardian. Llyr Williams' long and successful collaboration with Signum Records includes the 8-disc box-set ‘A Schubert Journey' (2020), the 12-volume ‘Beethoven Unbound' (2018), a ‘Wagner Without Words' double album (2014) and highlights from Liszt's ‘Annees de pelerinage‘ (2012).
★★★★★ “Right from the third sonata, he shows himself to be an intelligent pianist, one who not only thinks about the pieces he plays, but also approaches them with genuine musicality and sensitivity” – Pizzicato
★★★★★ “This is fine Brahms playing indeed: Llyr Williams has the depth of understanding and comprehensive technique necessary to deliver these masterworks through a high level of interpretative mastery…The recording quality is also fine, as is the accompanying booklet essay by Geraint Lewis. An exceptional issue” – Musical Opinion
★★★★ Performance ★★★★ Recording “Llyr Williams has an enviable reputation for pianism of a deeply considered, even considerate kind … [here] his special qualities are on ample display” – BBC Music Magazine
