"Kirsten Johnson clearly believes in the merit of Kabalevsky's works for piano and these two discs confirm the justification of that view. She plays everything in a committed way that shows her love for the music and her obvious wish to share it with the public. I trust the public will respond accordingly." Steve Arloff, musicweb-international.com
