Lucia Negro – piano

This is very powerful and convincing piano writing in the style of Schumann and Brahms, but with a slightly modern twist. I consider myself a pianophile and acceptance of new music does not come easy. This disk, however, entered the pantheon of greatness approximately 10 seconds after inserting it into my overworked and underpaid CD player. I found the piano writing idiomatic and wrought with pathos, drama and exquisite beauty. The compositions are all based on traditional forms and are easy to digest. As for the performer, his name doesn't ring a bell, but its safe to say that he delivers a no-holds barred, more than competent reading.
This is definitely music I will return to frequently. If you're becoming weary of the same old top 40 classical piano music, this should come as a welcome addition to the repertoire. I was truly moved, and therefore am compelled to give this CD an enthusiastic 5 stars. Don't miss it!
