There are a number of notable piano recordings amongst this month’s evaluations. Veteran artist Pierre-Laurent Aimard takes on Schubert’s Ländler dances. Yunchan Lim (pictured) shows astonishing artistry in Chopin’s Etudes. Then there are the piano concertos by little-known nineteenth century composers Henselt and Bronsart, carried out with sensitivity by Paul Wee.
