Benjamin Grosvenor: Homages

"Recorded in that very fine venue for piano music, the Wyastone Concert Hall in Monmouth, this is an excellent production and should be on the shelf of every collector of good piano music. That said, this is a recording that needs care when seeking an ideal playback volume. Nick van Bloss at the same venue is a little less spectacular in terms of stereo spread and low-frequency wallop, but with this Decca recording there is a feel of just a little extra sprinkling of 'processing' that sails close to hyper-reality at times-though this may have to do with my habit of listening through headphones. The proportion between close-up detail and acoustic is however very good and, depending on your equipment and environment you are invited to throw open both channels and revel in a tremendous listening experience."
