Editor's review

No romantic composer epitomizes the genre's delicate blend of formal precision and effusive swell more than Chopin. It takes a special kind of pianist to achieve that balance, but Cleveland's Shevchenko nails it, never letting the sonata's twinkly right-hand swirls outdazzle the sturdy left.

Biography

Pianist Margarita Shevchenko, a musician of "uncommon sensitivity and refinement," is one of the leading young pianists on the international concert platform today. She has been the recipient of the "Special Chopin Prize" at five international piano competitions in addition to numerous top prizes she has won at major international piano competitions in Europe, Japan and the United States. Cleveland's music critic Donald Rosenberg called her  "a  musician to cherish"  who has won the hearts of audiences, critics and competition judges around the world.
