The Martinu
There is nothing spectacular or high-powered about this account of the
Older readers may remember that Michel Block won Rubinstein's acclaim at Warsaw in the year that Pollini came to prominence and went on to make a fine DG recording of Chopin's B flat minor Sonata. Since then he has been active teaching: the late-lamented Terence Judd was one of his pupils. (I mention this since no information about either soloist is offered on the sleeve.) He is a sensitive player and gives a sympathetic account of d'Indy's Symphonie sur un chant montagnard francais. The recording, made in the Casino, Berne, is well balanced, with the piano slightly but not unrealistically forward, and again benefits from a well-judged perspective: it could perhaps open out more at climaxes. Recommended, especially for the Martinu, which is one of the finest works of his last period.'
