Uma Artista rara, musical e segura. Concepção musical madura, aliada a um desempenho técnico primoroso. Queremos ouvir mais Diana Kacso..

So beautiful. Such a big style. I was in ear training class at Juilliard with Diana. She was such a lovely person.. Though i never heard her play I knew she was this kind of beautiful artist-one could sense it. So sorry she is no longer with us. The recording brought tears to my eyes! Eric Shumsky

So beatifully, emotionally and architecturely played!!! Deep, profound sounds, grandious phrasing! And a great connection of the parts! I wish I could se her playing these days!

[@davidascanio6300]

We are in front of a major artist! So young when she just went to that competition and so mature in her musical thinking! I wish I could listen more from her! It must be people who have her recordings alive or private. If so, please, do share it. Nowadays, the soul has been "removed" so to speak, and Music is just a superficial act (with some notorious exceptions). Music became like so many other arts: a business instead of an act of love for beauty, values, life and God... Bravo Miss Kacso. Thanks to the Chopin Institute.

She was a well-regarded pianist during the 1980s, but where is she now?

This piece, even among all the great works of Chopin, is very, very special to me. And this is a truly wonderful performance.
