Customer Reviews:

Cool music, great playing!.......2000-05-08

Jeff Lankov is one of the most versatile pianists I've known. This CD showcases his flawless skills and fabulous interpretation of Gershwin's piano music, including a brilliant performance of "Rhapsody In Blue". It is definitely going to be one of my favorites in my CD collection (of over 300), and I am even planning on buying another copy in case I 'wear out' this one! More likely I'd give it to my sister so she won't have to borrow mine all the time :-) I'm looking forward to further recordings from Mr. Lankov, be it Chopin, Rachmaninoff, Beethoven or Stravinsky!

Great Gershwin.......2000-02-09

Mr. Lankov's Gershwin CD is GREAT! I love it! His playing is very easy to listen to. A must have for piano and Gershwin fans.

Lankov is OUTSTANDING!.......2000-01-21

Mr. Lankov got it right! His interpretation of Gershwin doesn't sound like an over-practiced piano rag. He captures the spirit of Gershwin in a way that takes you back to the early 1900's. His performance of "Rhapsody in Blue" is powerful and dramatic. You haven't heard Gershwin like this in a long time.

Definately worth a listen!

Bravo Mr. Lankov, Bravo!

Pure Classy Gershwin.......2000-01-17

What a relief to finally hear Gershwin's piano music played with flawless technique AND real jazz style all at once! Mr. Lankov's interpretations of the Gershwin solo rep are without a doubt the best I have ever heard. What will his next album be?
