John Ogdon - Plays Popular Chopin
Review by Andy Anderson
Plays Popular Chopin by John Ogdon is a classical music album that showcases the pianist's exceptional talent and skill. The album comprises of Chopin's most popular piano works, including the Nocturnes, Polonaises, and Waltzes.
The album begins with the Nocturne in E-Flat Major, Op. 9, No. 2, which is beautifully played by Ogdon. The pianist's interpretation of the piece is both delicate and passionate, capturing the essence of Chopin's romantic style. The album also features the famous "Raindrop" Prelude, Op. 28, No. 15, which is played with great sensitivity and expressiveness.
Ogdon's performance of the Polonaise in A-Flat Major, Op. 53, is another highlight of the album. He plays the piece with great energy and vigor, showcasing his impressive technical skills. The Waltzes, which are some of Chopin's most beloved works, are also beautifully played by Ogdon.
