"Carmen Stefanescu begins her program with deeply romantic pieces by Debussy. Like most of the works on this Prospero album, they are song transcriptions. The cantando of the pianist, whose piano also sounds very spacious, the generally slow tempi and the quiet pieces contribute to the dreamy, nostalgic impression on the first CD.
The second program with Manuel de Falla’s Siete canciones populares espanolas is a bit more excited and dance-like. The extent to which Stefanescu strives for the cantabile is strikingly evident in Fazil Say’s Black Earth, which, as with Inna Faliks, takes on a completely different quality than Say himself."
