Two masters of the keyboard caught enjoying themselves in music of colour and variety. The main attraction is a delectable surprise: Pletnev's arrangement for two pianos of music from Prokofiev's Cinderella is tremendous, not surprsing given Pletnev the conductor's mastery of the orchestral score. The Ravel is sheer joy from start to finish with some exquisite textures and real magic from its pianists. The sound is exemplary - you can close your eyes and imagine exactly where the two instruments are positioned.
