 Notes & Reviews Back to Top 
These new recordings were recorded at St. Georges's Brandon Hill, Bristol and give a comprehensive overview of Chopin's output from his earliest published work until his death. Of course there is no shortage of fine Chopin recordings available but in Valerie Tryon we have a pianist whose refined elegance, and effortless technique, make her the perfect Chopin interpreter. Listening to these performances one is reminded time and time again of descriptions of Chopin's own playing - this is essentially lyrical approach with an easy natural rubato and always emphasizing the singing line. Tryon may not be the most famous of pianists but don't forget, her recent Mendelssohn recording (APR5595) was described by critic Julian Haylock as 'without doubt, the finest Mendelssohn recital ever recorded.'
