Johannes Brahms
Variations Op. 21 Nos. 1 & 2, Klavierstücke Ops. 118 & 119
Mark Anderson
"He (Anderson) creates a magical oasis of calm in the Op.118 No.2 and finds so much more than mere energy in the robust opening measures of the 'Ballade '. His temperament is ideally suited to the elusive mix of romanticism and pre-impressionism in Op.119 No.1. Quite without cunning or artifice, his eloquence defines music once described as "like the golden lustre of parks in autumn, and the austere black and white of winter walks"."
Bryce Morrison, Gramophone
