He plays with a fair amount of Romantic freedom, which I find thoroughly enjoyable.

Fantasy: Danae Dorken
More goodies from Presto...
Bach, C P E: Fantasia F major Schubert: Fantasie in C major, D760 'Wanderer' Schumann: Fantasie in C major, Op. 17 Danae Dorken (piano) This SACD was recommended by Stereophile's "The Fifth Element" column in its Dec 2014 issue. I was intrigued and decided to get it. The serious-looking artist on the cover is a young German pianist who has great technique and artistry. The Ars label recording of the piano is superb. I'm glad I got this disc. [ame="http://youtu.be/WOGul-b9gXM"]http://youtu.be/WOGul-b9gXM[/ame] Last edited by cma29; 12-07-2014 at 10:10 PM. |

A year or two ago, I would have bought Ms. Dorken's disc just to have it on SACD. These days, I'd rather have a good RBCD by more established artists, such as Richter, Arrau, Brendel, Pollini, et al. Of course, ideally, we could buy such artists who have been so well recorded!

No. 30-32 today. I know some people think his tempos are too slow, but I think they add depth and majesty to the music. I can't get over how good these 50 year old recordings sound. No doubt the original analog tape and tube mics helped.
