I couldn't find this recording on Amazon (the label is ASO media), and it seems to be a "download only" release on Presto. But I DID find it on Apple Music, and will give it a listen soon. I do like a lot of Ohlsson's recordings, but I'm just hoping that this one is not too S-L-O-W! ;-)

Mr. Moore's recent review of Lim's Rachmaninoff Third prompted me to audition several other recordings of this work. One I never previously heard before was what I think is an absolutely stunning performance by Garrick Ohlsson, accompanied by Robert Spano conducting the Atlanta Symphony.
How different this one is! To my ears, it's much more warm and lyrical than most performances, but certainly not lacking in fireworks.
I searched the MusicWeb archives for a review, but couldn't find one. I'm wondering if any reviewers here have heard this performance and what they might think of it?
