Critic Brian Reinhart of MusicWeb International has just posted a most appreciative review of Korean-American pianist Klara Min’s debut release for Delos, calling it an “excellent disc.” Reinhart advised that the main appeal of the release “…lies in the glowing tone of her piano … and the subtlety with which she inflects these mazurkas’ rhythms.”
He goes on to say that “her rhythmic sense is … unerring, with any slight hesitations or halts in the dance step carefully judged,” and to praise her playing’s impression of spontaneity, even though “…just about every phrase, every pause, is very carefully calibrated.” Reinhart concludes that “I certainly found much to enjoy here, and I’ll be happy to listen to more from this pianist when it arrives.”
Check out this lush-sounding and beautifully played release below, and see if you don’t agree!
