"The performance [of EXPO] by the NYPO in the première, recorded here, is quite wonderful, reminding us what a very great ensemble this is. They are matched by the astonishing pianism of Bronfman in the concerto ... This is an exciting CD, brilliantly performed and recorded; as an introduction to one of the most approachable and individual voices in contemporary music, it could hardly be bettered".

"Summa summarum en cd för en publik som älskar energisk musik av modernare snitt där orkestern utnyttjas maximalt. Söker man substans och lite djupsinne bör man söka andra vägar, för det finns det inte tilstymmelse till här ... New York Philharmonic spelar den här typen av musik perfekt och dirigenten Alan Gilbert leder med uppenbar entusiasm".

"The largest work is the Second Piano Concerto (2012) ... Ravel's Left-Hand Concerto is the acknowledged influence behind its main themes ... yet these have been artfully subsumed into an expansive and panoramic musical landscape that culminates in a cadenza which sounds tailor-made for the barnstorming virtuosity of Yefim Bronfman. Alan Gilbert secures an opulent and impressively unanimous response from the New York Philharmonic".

"You may feel that gestures alone, however enticingly coloured, are insufficient to sustain symphonic works of this length ... without benefit of memorable themes or sustained ostinatos ... This may be so - but he's certainly having a lot of fun on the voyage, and his current sound-world invites us along in no uncertain terms. If you enjoy being dazzled, hop aboard".
