About

Liadov’s handful of orchestral works have become concert favourites, but his choral music is as good as unknown. It falls into three main categories: religious chants, folksong arrangements and original compositions. All three confirm Liadov’s status as a kind of Fabergé of music: they blend exquisite craftsmanship and delicate beauty.

“This disc marks the start of the first complete cycle of [Liadov’s] piano music, and is a reminder of what a fine composer he could be within the narrow range in which he worked … Olga Solovieva plays it all with great finesse, but is also not afraid to really let rip when required.” – Tim Ashley, The Guardian (Liadov - Complete Piano Music Vol.1, TOCC0082)

“… Russian pianist Olga Solovieva here embarks on a complete recording of Lyadov’s piano music, and the results are well worth the listener’s time. … Thoroughly pleasing, with precise yet never academic performances from Solovieva and unfussy engineering, in Moscow, from Britain’s Toccata Classics… Strongly recommended.” – James Manheim, AllMusic (Liadov - Complete Piano Music Vol.1, TOCC0082)
