Virtuoso playing of incredibly difficult and interesting music.
- Leonard Phillips, 09/27/2000, USA Extraordinary. The best reading of the 'Primo Libre' of Ligeti's etudes, yet. All of the CDs in this series are gems. You should also get the String Quartet CD (volume 1 in the series) with the Arditti Quartet. Ligeti, at this twilight of his life, deserves to finally have these sensitive and accomplished recordings widely heard. He's one of our century's greatest composers, but is remembered for both of his vocal works used in '2001'. His work goes far beyond those pieces. Vive Ligeti!
- Dean Estes, 05/15/1997, USA Fine performance, but I think there can be a better one.
- H Totsuka, 04/01/1997, Japan Excellent contemporary music, and yet very accessible. This is Volume 3 in Sony's complete Ligeti edition, and is another winner.
