REVIEWS

"Schepkin's WTC II is thought-provoking, blissfully musical, remarkable in the depth and felicity of its detail... Schepkin stands out in my mind as the major Bach interpreter of his generation."
--American Record Guide

"Schepkin's approach is bolder, more vibrant than that of Angela Hewitt, yet the range and variety of playing is comparable, showing a constantly individual grasp of the essence of Bach's inspiration and the expressive range that lies beneath the surface of these apparently pedagogic exercises in polyphony."
--The Penguin Guide (three stars out of three)


"Thoughtful, undogmatic Bach-playing from a pianist who is unafraid to characterise individual pieces strongly and use the full resources of the piano.... undeniably beautiful control of nuance... worth listening to."
--Gramophone
