Yevgeny Sudbin : Reviews

PIANO

Scriabin “Prometheus & Poem of Ecstasy (BIS)

No pianist of any generation has, in my experience, captured Scriabin’s volatility so vividly as Sudbin. This, put suitably euphorically, is a disc in a million.

Bryce Morrison, Gramophone (Editor’s Choice)

Beethoven “Piano Concertos 4 & 5” (BIS)

Time and again I come away from a Yevgeny Sudbin recital thinking the same thing, that this brilliant young pianist exhibits an infectious hunger for his repertoire. He seems to consume it, occasionally be consumed by it, and his exploration of these concertos seems exactly that, an entirely immersary experience. Thrilling.

James Inverne, Gramophone

World Heartbeat Embassy Gardens, London

Phenomenal pianism in close-up – Sudbin has an astonishing way of balancing things up, of making the whole recital being much bigger than the sum of its parts

Sebastian Scotney, The Artsdesk

Rachmaninov (BIS)

This confirms him as one of the most important pianistic talents of our time

Harriet Smith, International Record Review
