Info for Byron Janis Plays Moussorgsky: Pictures At An Exhibition
„Byron Janis's performance dates from 1961 and his admirers will snap up this first release like golddust. For Janis 'there has been no greater work for the piano' though changes 'enhance certain sonorities': a touch of hyperbole and contradiction. But his actual performance is of a stupendous brio and his Horowitz-honed virtuosity in the final pages is overwhelming in its pace and dynamism. Omitting one 'Promenade' he finds time for two encores which, although oddly misplaced, are worth every scintillating note. Chopin's Etude, Op. 25 No. 3 flashes and winks like summer lightning and in the A minor Waltz the playing is as patrician in style as it is crystalline in technique.“ (Gramophone)
