Work: Capriccio in D minor, Op.116 no.7

An effective Bach, a disappointing Brahms and a generally satisfactory Schubert: Kovacevich fails to grip in Dublin. 

Though born in America, Stephen Kovacevich has lived in London since moving there to study with the great Dame Myra Hess at the age of eighteen. He clearly has a special rapport with British audiences, as his amiable manner in discussing his encores demonstrated.

Dans des œuvres de Schubert, Liszt et Brahms, le pianiste irlandais révèle des dons de caméléon, qui sait trouver le son qui va à chaque compositeur.
