Hello Mr Paganini
“It’s no surprise to learn that Ning Feng was the winner of the 2006 International Paganini Competition in Genoa; he’s able to bring the great virtuoso’s most extreme flights of fancy to life with exceptional beauty and precision. The left hand pizzicati are uncommonly clear, even and rhythmic, and the notorious double harmonics are not only pure in tuning and tone quality, but sensitively and expressively phrased, too. Performed with this degree of finesse, Paganini’s music takes on a surreal quality – a dreamlike extension of more normal ranges of expression… It’s an enthralling, exciting recital.”
