OUT NOW: Das neue Album „PUZZLE“

Sophie Pacini’s new album „PUZZLE“ wins „SUPERSONIC AWARD“ of Pizzicato Magazine Luxembourg

On January 13th Sophie Pacini’s new Album „PUZZLE“ with works by Chopin and Skrjabin was released.

Remy Franck awarded her new album immediately with the high acclaimed „Supersonic Award“ and says in his review:

„Sophie Pacini begins her Chopin program with a highly dramatic First Ballade. She plays with a naturalness and a coherence that ballad specialist Horowitz (for all the outstanding quality of his playing) never actually achieved, neither in 1947 nor in 1982 and certainly not in his rather mannered recording of 1968. Pacini’s interpretation is of one piece, it flows from beginning to end and yet misses nothing that is essential, reaches all moments of expression and all contrasts. In this way and only in this way, with this original and personal emotionality, this Ballade achieves a maximally compelling power and becomes that passionate narrative whose content Chopin only captured musically, allowing a deep glimpse into his soul. (…) „
