“Only in the final Allegro, with its galumphing, almost ribald theme-certainly as close as Rubinstein ever comes to the trenchant finale of 4-do we glimpse the true genius of the man, aided immeasurably by Zamparas's formidable technique.”

"Grigorios Zamparas demonstrated that musicianship and passion can combine to recreate opera on a grand scale using just a piano, aided by transcriptionist Franz Liszt, who seems to have had a complete understanding of the piano’s potential to sound like a full orchestra."

"Grigorios Zamparas at the piano, Eugen Tzikindelean on violin and Sergey Antonov on cello. The three musicians were on spot and in sync playing the sparkling and exuberant allegro. The sweetness of the adagio’s second movement was accented by being able to hear the individual instruments so clearly; the dulcet sounds of violin and cello were greatly complemented by the piano work."
