Despite an abundance of virtuosic Liszt pieces and such force in the Appassionata that he almost fell off his chair at the end, what was most impressive about Behzod Abduraimov in the Queen Elizabeth Hall on Tuesday was the way he handled the softer parts.

Friday's concert from the Sydney Symphony, "Fireworks and Fantasy", most certainly lived up to its title.

Au vu de sa Campanella, de son Appassionata, il paraît évident qu’Abduraimov est de ces artistes qui pratiquent au plus haut degré une certaine forme de culturisme technique. Culturisme qu’il pare et sublime sous l’animalité de ses lectures : violence féline, spontanéiste, presque iconoclaste mais toujours fascinante.
