THE CRITICS:
New Classics: "(---) On these remarkable recordings the fine young Hungarian-born flutist Kinga Práda, accompanied by her mother Ilona Jánky at the piano, plays a well-chosen selection of Romantic flute music. The Transylvanian duo explore a wide range of classical repertory (---) This is delightful music played with great skill and expression. " Musicweb-International: "(---) Here she is back with music of more traditional fare from some generations ago. It is gratifying to be able to report that her playing is just as good. She is accompanied by her mother, Ilona Jánky Práda who, especially in the Franck Sonata, shows what a great pianist she is. (---) Kinga Práda plays with total conviction and an intensity of her own. Fantasie Pastorale Hongroise has a strong Hungarian flavour, especially the more rapid second part. It is first and foremost a virtuoso piece, and Kinga negotiates the pyrotechnics with ease. Great entertainment again! (---) The main reason for acquiring this disc is the superb playing of Kinga Práda. " |
