Review by Jason Slagle

The 1982 San Francisco Recital by Shura Cherkassky is a masterpiece of classical piano music. The album captures the virtuosity and artistry of one of the greatest pianists of the 20th century. Cherkassky's performance is breathtaking, with his dynamic range and technical precision leaving listeners spellbound.

The album features a selection of works by Chopin, Schumann, and Liszt, among others. Cherkassky's interpretation of Chopin's Nocturne in C-sharp minor is particularly noteworthy, with his delicate touch and nuanced phrasing creating a hauntingly beautiful rendition of the piece.

The recording quality of the album is excellent, with the piano sounding clear and resonant. The audience's applause and Cherkassky's brief comments between pieces add a personal touch to the recording, making it feel like a live performance.
