Hurry :

Pianist - July / August 2012 - SF: This DVD is both a recital, but also a documentary. [.] one can only admire the magnificent performances on two Steingraeber pianos. Pascal Gallet notably plays the one dated 1873 that Liszt owned. These instruments, when played with such mastery of power and such clever use of the pedal, become "out of the ordinary". Indeed, how not to revel in bass that sound like organ and treble as refined? Without forcing the touch, the performer makes his keyboard sing, expresses vehemence like the velvety nuances of the Harmonie du Soir or the Second Ballad. Musically, a success.
