Description
“Toccata and Fugue in D minor:-, Nikolayeva’s version of the same work, played with due majesty and sense of drama, and given something of an organ-like palette of colour . …(she) is, however, a romantic at heart and so too is her view. The Chaconne is.. majestic and heartfelt ..but it isn’t ‘baroque’. …As a statement of love and respect by a superb pianist this is an eloquent recording “. (Gramophone)
