CD REVIEWS |

"For the real pianophiles....
Himy's CD "The Art of the Transcription for Piano" is strongly recommended."
|
|
|
"On his CD "The Art of the Transcription", Himy
exhibits an extraordinary ability to play rapidly and project lightheartedness
declaiming the opening Mozart/Liszt Reminiscences of Don Juan with speed and
spontaneity... a showstopper and tribute to the art of the piano."
|

|
"Unskakeable sense of music, scintillating
colors, melting lyricism, full-blooded playing.....while the Horowitz Carmen
Variations drove his superb recital to a rousing close.....bravissimo!"

awesome in scope, and his passion for music and its projection is indeed
overwhelming, what dexterity, power and daring ! Himy is in class of his
own." |
