    Really enjoying her style, she makes them sound like Schumann!

    It is the homely nature of her play that attracts me the most.

    Good word, homely. This week I've listened to her and to Babayan playing some of them. Babayan the better pianist no doubt -- but I still like Kyriaku.

    Have you heard anything else by her? The Albeniz for example.

    No. She's new to me. Thanks for the Albeniz! I'm looking forward to it.

    Well I've always viewed Mendelssohn as "Schumann-light".

    Kyriaku's Albeniz has the same characteristics: as if she is playing at home, for herself. It makes her very easy to listen to.

    Do you also view Schumann as "Mendelssohn- Heavy ?!?

    Listening to Ginette Doyenne now play some songs without words, the lustre of Rene Kyriakou has rapidly worn off for me, the novelty value. She just became annoyingly plain. Anyway Doyenne’s OK - but the best I’ve ever heard in this stuff is Maria
    Grinberg!

    Gieseking’s the best when I’m listening to Gieseking, Grinberg’s the best when I’m listening to Grinberg.

    Then maybe I should play it for you as well! ;-)

    Kyoko Tabe makes each piece sound like a tone poem to me. Thanks for pointing it out, it’s definitely something I will be exploring.

    Perhaps, but competition is much tougher.

    Beautiful piano used by Cassard for his Mendelssohn disc, a 1901 Steinway which sounds like the instrument Edwin Fischer used for Beethoven sonatas. The booklet credits Cedric Pescia for the piano, maybe he owns it.
