	Easy Reader Story
		The Moments (1896) are early Rachmaninoff, so it might be claimed at the very least that they have the same youthful zest of his young predecessors.
		But if at times the cavalry appears to be riding in, so it is, too, with the quiet, thoughtful moments, and together these are like curves on a descending, winding road that only a precise and yet confident pianist can maneuver to perfection.
		It was an engaging concert from the moment the young man sat down and began to play.

	MusicWeb Review: CACD-9217-2
		Her sense of structural control in the finale is characterful and absolute; she can inflect the line with mordant wit and the balance between piano and orchestra is good.
		At moments of optimum expressive pointing one still feels a powerful directional sense from her and as the movement gathers steam she is mightily impressive, the peroration of the movement galvanic in its success.
		Her figuration in the central passage of the B flat minor is full of filigree clarity, her rolled chords lavished with an auburn beauty, the contrastive sonorities and colouristic potential aptly delineated.

	Elizabeth Wolff: 19th century classical piano
		Moszkowski, a German of Polish descent, was born in 1854 in Breslau.
		The 4 Moments Musicaux of Opus 84, however, are truly gems.
		The third "Moment" in C Minor is the only one in minor and is the most personal and reverent of the set.

		The Six Moments Musicaux - written in 1896 shortly before the disastrous premiere of Rachmaninoff’s First Symphony - mark an enormous advance over the Morceaux, both technically and stylistically.
		True, Andrei Gavrilov beats Shelley to the finishing line both in the E minor and the colossal C major, but it’s Shelley who emerges as the more rounded musician, a point underlined by his natural and free-flowing way with the slower pieces.
		In the D flat major - arguably the most forward-looking of the Moments Musicaux - Gavrilov can only manage a cautious plod while Shelley plays as though free of all constraint, soaring to the heavens and back.

		The younger man was depicted by a brilliant characteristic mark of sophisticated clarity in his writing; the elder, by a passionate romantic style deliberately forcing phrases to blend one after another.
		The Schubert group began with Six Moments Musicaux, D.780.
		The second F Minor selection bridged the program space to the last Moment, which returned us to A flat major; its persistent melody became compelling with the use of controlled dynamic contrasts.

	classical music - andante - schubert unbuttoned: bostridge and uchida in die schöne müllerin
		The separation of head and chest voices is sometimes stark, as if each delineates a separate character, and at certain moments his headlong attack blurs consonants.
		Hardly a syllable emerges without emphatic colouring, but although his approach to vocal expression may be overwrought, it is forged in the heat of the moment.
		Her experience in shaping the exquisite lines of Schubert's piano sonatas enabled her to follow Bostridge, or to lead him, according to the demands of the moment.

		The Six Moments Musicaux, together with the Impromptus, represent her primary contribution to the discography but are uneven.
		The transfers have been expertly handled and the booklet is both handsome and full of pertinent biographical information; period photographs only serve to enhance the attractiveness of the design — something of a model booklet.

		The exception, of course, is the Prelude In C Sharp Minor, certainly the most popular piano piece Rachmaninov ever wrote.
		But for all its popularity, Rachmaninov's Prelude is always performed as an excerpt from his five-movement Morceaux De Fantasie from 1892 and the Morceaux, along with its companion, the six Moments Musicaux from 1896, are nearly unknown to all but Rachmaninov's biggest fans.
		The resulting disc is incontrovertible proof that Rachmaninov's early piano works are just as good as his later piano works.

		This is not a major cavil, but it is a concern for those collectors who aim to have just the one performance of any given composition.
		He is however, particularly interesting in the way his playing and his technical prowess open up textural details in the complex expressiveness of pieces like the six Moments musicaux.
		These are by no means the most celebrated among Rachmaninov's piano compositions, but they do have abundant subtleties, which the combination of secure technique and excellent recorded sound does much to uncover.

		FRANZ SCHUBERT Impromptus D. Moments Musicaux D. 780; Three Klavierstücke D. OLIVIER MESSIAEN Regard des Prophètes, des Bergers et des Mages
		On paper Schubert's two books of Impromptus, six Moments Musicaux, and Three D. 946 Klavierstück might seem too much of a good thing programed on a single recital, as Konstantin Lifschitz did on July 12, 2000.
		Palexa's live recording of that occasion, however, proved me wrong as I sat for two hours, transfixed in front of my stereo system, thoroughly soaking in Schubert's music and Lifschitz's riveting, at times revelatory artistry.

		There's little spring to the pianist's spiky, militant treatment of repeated rhythmic sequences, both in the sonata and throughout the Six Moments Musicaux.
		Among readily available, single-disc versions of D. 894, Mitsuko Uchida's multi-hued dynamic shadings and limpid poetry stand out from the competition (Philips).
		Likewise, Clifford Curzon's sensitively voiced, exquisitely timed recreations of the Moments Musicaux on Decca retain their benchmark status.

		Berman's sheer power is almost frightening, but he can play with the most exquisite declicacy when necessary.
		Deutsche Grammaphon has also jumped on the Berman bandwagon with two all-Russian releases, including Tchaikovsky's First Piano Concerto, Prokofieff's Eighth Piano Sonata and the Six Moments Musicaux of Rachmaninoff.
		In the Rachmaninoff, Berman shows most clearly his delight with his old style of playing, fluid, elastic shapes.

	Brendel performs on a higher plane
		Presented by the Seattle Symphony, he performed three works constituting many components of differing mood: Mozart's Nine Variations in D major on a Minuet by J.P. Duport, Schumann's "Kreisleriana" with its eight variations, and Schubert's six "Moments musicaux." He finished with Haydn's Sonata in C Major, Hob.XVI:48.
		It was pure music to the ear: eloquent, profound or carefree by turn.
		In Schumann's work of half a century later -- during which the piano evolved rapidly to a much more powerful instrument -- a cheerful abundance of notes sounded easy and relaxed, introspective here, exhilarating there; while Brendel provided Schubert's small gems with moments of musing, drama and Bach-like orderliness.
