“…Her rubato in the Mozart pieces is particularly pleasing: so subtle that you almost wouldn’t know it’s there, except that the music breathes so naturally and follows the ebb and flow of its harmonies so fully. <…> It’s hard to imagine a more idyllic or intimate performance of the gentler preludes on this recording. And in op. 15’s etude-like Prelude in F # Minor, Chochieva produces an extraordinary combination of clarity, speed, melodic shaping, andrubato that is reminiscent of Neuhaus. <…> This is a deeply felt, expertly conveyed recital, recorded with a faithful concert-hall piano sound.”
