If you watched the recent ABC TV series The Piano you would have heard one of the judges, Andrea Lam, described as “Australia’s greatest classical pianist”. Some may dispute this, but few would disagree that her Piano Diary album is a beautifully performed gem with something for every lover of the instrument.
The 16 diverse tracks span a generous 80 minutes of pieces new and old important to Lam throughout her life. Some are explosive and fun – Earl Wild’s Etude No. 6 based on Gershwin’s I Got Rhythm or contemporary New Yorker Aaron Jay Kernis’s Superstar Etude #2, for instance. Others are superb readings of favourites – Chopin’s Ballade No. 4 and Nocturne in C-sharp minor, Schubert’s Impromptu No. 3 and a brace of Schumann delights by Robert and Clara.
