In April of this year PentaTone released the debut album of exclusive artist Nareh Arghamanyan, born in Armenia who was admitted to the Vienna Conservatory at the age of 14 (youngest ever). This Rachmaninov recital was very well received. Classics today gave it a 10/10 and uses it as benchmark recording. This recording has already generated great reviews in the US.
"These interpretations...display some obvious strengths: the technique of this young Armenian-born pianist is beautifully fluent, giving her playing a freedom that is not at all slick or perfunctory, and she also offers likeable, rounded tone and more than reasonable firepower. But you do also need the imagination to come up with individual things to say and there's too little evidence of this." (BBC Music)
