January/February 2020

For all his scrupulous attention to the music’s murmurings, the more outgoing rhythmic cross-currents are handled stunningly; and because of his control of balances there’s a marvelous glow to the textures of these works.

18th August 2019

Chen’s live recording of Scriabin’s Sonatas Nos 6, 1, 8 and 5 (Accentus) suggests dedication indeed to this singular, sensuous body of music: romantic in the earlier examples, then spinning off into aural and structural fantasy.
