Notes & Reviews:

A treasury of extemporaneous compositions written between 1821 and 2008 that includes several first recordings is offered by the Russian-American pianist Margarita Glebov.

International Record Review
Throughout her highly diverse programme, she is in complete command of every element. Her attention to clarity and tonal values is particularly noteworthy, and she summons appropriate bravura for the demanding Balakirev and Moszowski selections... An auspicious debut

Gramophone Magazine
An impressive and sympathetically recorded calling-card from a Russian-American pianist who dares to be different - and three cheers for that. Her expressive range and complete empathy with each composer represented here make one hope for more from her.
