SCRIABIN, A.: Etudes, Opp. 8 and 42 / Fantaisie, Op. 28 (Biret Solo Edition, Vol. 8)
“Never have I heard such superb, resonant, clear piano sound on a record… Included on this LP are two Chopin Mazurkas, Prokofiev’s 2nd Sonata and Scriabin’s 10th Sonata. They are superb performances, filled with marvelous dynamic contrasts.”
BILLBOARD (USA) – 1977
“For well versed insiders of music, Idil Biret has been for many years a trusted and respected artist. Her Scriabin, Bartok and Prokofiev interpretations are exemplary classical benchmarks.”
DIE WELT (Germany) – 1979
“The Idil Biret Solo Edition, featuring recent rather than historical performances by the Turkish pianist, is turning out to be a truly exceptional experience. The IBA (Idil Biret Archive) label has been releasing a flood of Biret recordings in its “Beethoven”, “Concerto” and “Archive” series, but the Solo Edition ones are in some ways the most impressive of all.”
