Reviews
Classic Record Collector
“The recording of the C minor trio, new to me, is delectable…. The recording is also superb for 1942. The pianist is a classicist to her fingertips, throwing off pearl-like runs of notes with a consistently lovely tone, and her artistry is fully matched by her colleagues. The Ghost …is as splendid as I remember it, with a heartfelt slow movement. This lovely disc carries an unequivocal recommendation
