Vilde Frang - Press Reviews

Album: Sibelius and Prokofiev Concertos

This is an unusually potent debut recording from a prodigiously gifted artist… Frang’s chemistry is disarmingly exquisite.

Ian Julier, International Record Review, March 2010

What makes this recording so special is not so much Frang’s seductive, sinewy yet voluptuous tone, nor her effortless technical mastery; it is her startling emotional sincerity and inspired musical imagination that rivet the attention.

Julian Haylock, The Strad, March 2010

Impressive debut recording

Geoff Brown, The Times

Ushering the Sibelius with a sweetly tremulous whisper, Frang heralds one of the freshest and most vital accounts of this familiar and frequently recorded work in recent years.

Michael Quinn, BBC Online, 16 February 2010

In the first Prokofiev she substitutes flash virtuosity with an in-your-ear whisper. In the Sibelius she is fire on ice. Frang is my hot tip for 2010.

Norman Lebrecht, La Scena Musicale, February 2010
