CHICAGO SYMPHONY

 

“Its youthful zest [Prokofiev Concerto No. 3] was displayed to the hilt by Zilberstein… More impressive was the graceful, almost effortless navigation of the music’s maddening alternation of the fast and furious with the soulfully lyrical.”

"... Lilya Zilberstein ... made the score sound fresh and compelling ... she can light a piano on fire and never lose control. She tore through the Tchaikovsky [Piano Concerto No. 1] with blazing octave runs and sparkling passage work, getting a big sound when called for and knowing when just a caress was enough."
