The esteemed American pianist Anne-Marie McDermott has played concertos, recitals, and chamber music in hundreds of cities in the United States, Europe, and Asia. On this release, McDermott has once again chosen the sonatas of Haydn, making this her second volume of the composer’s work for Bridge Records. “McDermott plays with tremendous wit, bringing out the geniality and humor of Haydn with great élan. She is an absolute marvel of clear articulation. When you hear her pull back ever-so-slightly on the volume, it’s as if she were directing a small orchestra, so perfect is the effect.” (The Art Music Lounge)
