Nadejda Vlaeva performs a programme of alluring piano works by Sergei Bortkiewicz, many of them only recently discovered and here recorded for the rst time.

Vlaeva plays…with commanding authority. She can sing, she can charm she can thunder, and she has a wonderfully innate rubato that suits Bortkiewicz's idiom to perfection. --Gramophone, Mar '16

A fascinating addition to the Bortkiewicz literature. --Music Web, Mar'16
