In this release, Orli Shaham comes to the end of her monumental survey of Mozart's complete Piano Sonatas. With this achievement, the pianist puts a double bar line on an exhilarating journey through music she has known most of her life. Shaham's affinity for Mozart is evident in each sonata, to which she applies tonal beauty, technical fluency, textural lucidity, and interpretive flair. Revered as a "thrillingly expressive" interpreter of Mozart's works, Orli Shaham brings "technical virtuosity and deftness" to performances that "connect directly with an audience".
