I just loved it. Loved it. And your review helped me to figure out why. Bolcom has a deep affinity for the Romantic Age in literature, I think, and what seems interesting to me is how giddy and bombastic the Beethoven sounded after hearing the Bolcom.
Thanks so much for your positive and spirited response, Patricia!
