Review:
On hearing Oleg Marshev¹s opening salvo in Rachmaninov¹s First Concerto (and his eruption into the cadenza later in the same movement) I was predisposed to like these performances. Indeed, they prove to be honest, committed, and founded on ample technical aplomb. These performances struck me as genuinely felt and absorbing ones.
BBC Music Magazine Editor's Pick - Pianist Magazine If you would like a grandly expansive approach favouring the epic then look no further than the Danacord set.
MusicWeb Oleg Marshev goes on to tackle central, much-duplicated repertory, emerging as a formidable contender if not an outright winner.
