He has the Russian Spirit that enhances the repertoire closest to him and that 'soulful' energy serves him well on this splendid recording of the Rachmaninov two sets of Études-Tableaux, Opus 33 and Opus 39. Each of these sets contains nine pieces that manage to cover the gamut of pianistic expression, reminding us that Rachmaninov was a popular concert pianist in this country before his death. Lugansky tackles the both the breakneck speed where required and the lingering liquid angst of the slow etudes. His technique is sparkling and his ability to carry Rachmaninov's 'heart on the sleeve' romanticism with respect makes him rather unique. This is a fine recording in all ways - interpretively and in production values. Highly recommended.
