He has a fine feeling for the music’s scope and scale which, if a tad monolithic in places, sounds just as ambitious as its composer intended.

Ohlsson is, if not the man for the job, then certainly one of them. He has power and agility in reserve, which means that he can take fences in his stride that find others huffing and blowing...Not for a moment did I feel I was in anything but the safest of Brahmsian hands.
