Mitsuko Uchida
A trio of reviews of recordings that include sadly neglected pieces by Dvořák, pianist Mitsuko Uchida’s phenomenal Diabelli Variations, and a haunting, arresting round-up of new music by the Departure Duo.
In the right hands, Shostakovich’s Twelfth can come off as nothing less than an intriguing, lively symphonic essay.
Mitsuko Uchida is quite possibly the finest Mozart pianist around today, at least among non-period specialists.
Among the three CDs reviewed is a particular treat — a new recording that really, truly matters.
