Chopin's beloved waltzes present a creative challenge for pianists, on the one hand presenting the option to stay on the surface where the light glimmers bathed in the beautiful melodies that Chopin wrote, or to delve into the still accessible sophistication and exquisite piano-isms that bubble underneath the surfaces of these waltzes written throughout Chopin's brief life. The Italian pianist Alessandro Deljavan's artistry and eloquence lead him to the deeper depths of Chopin in these compelling performances that add to his already wide ranging and still young discography.
