Together they make an excellent team; gentle, humorous and expressive… his sensitivity in the quieter passages was exquisite and his sense of power and panache grew steadily as the evening progressed. The Grand Galop Chromatique was exhilarating and the Pathetique Sonata slow movement was delicious. ...A splendid evening of high quality entertainment.
