Eldar Nebolsin’s début album of Rachmaninov’s Preludes Opp. 23 and 32 (Naxos 8.570327) was described by Classicstoday.com as “close to stunning …Nebolsin’s is a truly exceptional excursion into the music of Rachmaninov”, while his second album, featuring Liszt Piano Concertos Nos. 1 and 2 and Totentanz with the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra and Vasily Petrenko (Naxos 8.570517) received the following accolade from American Record Guide: “There is sheer pyrotechnic display on offer here that rivals the best on my shelf…He commands a formidable dynamic range; yet he knows when to caress the keys…(he) may well be the Richter of his generation”.
