Editorial Reviews
ARG, Sept./Oct. 1998
A remarkable pianist indeed. She has a strong technique and musicianship — the crispness of her articulation is especially notable.

cosmik.com/classics, January 1999
Slenczynska's Bach is both spirited and probing, featuring a rich and varied tone and imposing technique.

Album Description
Phenomenal clarity and elegant playing from child prodigy, legendary pianist and virtuosa — Ruth Slenczynska, in the first of a series of historic recordings from the 1950s and 60s. Piano playing in the grand tradition.
