Praised by the Washington<\/em> Post for combining \u201cstaggering technical prowess, a sense of command and depth of expression,\u201d pianist George Li possesses an effortless grace, poised authority, and brilliant virtuosity far beyond his years. In his new album Movements<\/em>, he highlights both the structure and the dancing spirit of the 18 movements of Schumann\u2019s ‘Davidsb\u00fcndlert\u00e4nze’ & ‘Arabeske in C major’, Ravel\u2019s 8 ‘Valses nobles et sentimentales’ and three movements from Stravinsky\u2019s score for the ballet Petruskha<\/em>. The album is a Gramophone<\/em> Editor’s Choice<\/a>, praised for “thoughtfully shaped and characterful performances throughout a delightful showcase of his art and of this music.”<\/p>\n
