By samples and as a lover of classical music, who knows most of the pieces in the original and also jazz and blues like, I was convinced to make a good buy here. In addition, I have discs that hinbekommen this crossover and I like. As outstanding course is here Jacques Loussier call.
But when I interjected Younee, it turned not as they had hoped and expected an enthusiasm. On the contrary, the hearing was not pleasant! How so, we still have here an excellent classical pianist with star qualities in her Korean homeland and a pronounced love for modern styles of music, connected to the heart's desire, this interconnect?
Well, to be honest, I do not know why it works only mediocre in my opinion.
The difference between classic and modern improvisations passages can often be clearly separated. At the point where the songs have a more harmonious, they are then almost logical remained arrested on very classic original.
In the first half of the CD Piano is unpleasant shrill and "bawling", neither for classical piano, even for jazz piano sounding, more like a "pianola from the Saloon". Very disconcerting. Annoying. Not nice to hear.
If one or the other of this judgment sounds too exaggerated, then I can understand him. I can also only subjectively give the impression that the sound of the piano made on me when I was relaxing on the sofa and was expecting a beautiful music.
"Tomorrow comes Santa Claus" would better his way not found on the disk, even if Herr Mozart is responsible for ensuring. Too childish, sorry.
The second half of the CD is as much more pleasant by her attack, on the whole peaceful and harmonious effect, and warmer in tone and play the lady. It is therefore not surprising that at least for me it is the beauty of music and the convincing power of the crossover are best (in succession 3 pieces) presented by Bach. This composer has himself anyway for such projects very well because he already intrinsically beiheimatet the spirit of world music over the centuries in the composition of his works.
Overall, no abysmal record, no! But none that convinced me so that they will often end up in my player. And that's why I give 2 stars to say: "I do not like". The 2 star arise certainly doing a little of my frustration.
Sorry, guys!
