“… What defines the performance [Piano Concerto No. 5] is 26-yearold Dupree. It’s not just a matter of crisp rhythms, seamless flow, and a hot orchestra. It’s his non-stop flow of seemingly free-wheeling inventiveness, even though Kapustin wrote down all the notes. I was completely caught up … Production values are terrific, the engineering superb, and the liner notes excellent …”

“… The fluency and rhythmic élan on display throughout this disc are the kind that make you smile and shake your head in disbelief…”

Jeremy Nicholas – Gramophone magazine – April 2023

“… Kapustin music is just the thing for jazz-enriched and big band panache. Dupree et al have it just right here. No wonder the pianist is smiling on the cover picture; he deserves to, as well.”

Performance **** Recording *****

Daniel Jaffé – BBC Music magazine – April 2023

“… This is Frank Dupree’s third and best recording of Kapustin’s style under his hands and his rapport with the orchestra, conductor and fellow instrumentalists in the couplings gives these performances real zing. Recommended.”

Guy Rickards - International Piano - March 2023

Pizzicato Supersonic

“… Sophisticated rhythms and stunning virtuosity, coupled with melancholy or even outright perky interjections, characterize this performance [5th Piano Concerto]. Dupree’s fascinating dexterity, his unsurpassable sense of rhythm and the enthusiasm that is transmitted to the orchestra and the listener are astounding…”

Remy Franck – Pizzicato.lu – 3 February 2023
