When a pianist is called a “virtuoso in the tradition of Gilels, Richter, and Horowitz” (Los Angeles Times), there’s going to be electricity coursing through the audience. Such is the case with Denis Matsuev, who returns to Carnegie Hall for a recital in which he displays his “epic technique … superhuman speed, power, and agility” (The Boston Globe).
