Peter Donohoe is a pianist known for Liszt, Prokofiev, and other virtuoso repertory, but with this 2024 release, he attempts something of a different kind and with considerable success. The program is devoted to the shades the waltz took on in the 19th and early 20th centuries, and none of it is particularly daunting technically. All the music is relatively well known, although Schumann's Abegg Variations, Op. 1, one of his very few encounters with the waltz form, is not played terribly often. Donohoe nicely captures the explosive quality of the young Schumann's talent. At the center of the program are 13 Chopin waltzes sequenced by Donohoe into logical key relationships and a shifting dynamic between bigger pieces and more reflective ones. Donohoe's tempos are overall on the deliberate side, and the delightful effect here is of being invited in for a tour of the Chopin waltzes by a pianistic master. The tour continues with Ravel's Valses Nobles et Sentimentales and with a single waltz by Debussy as the boundaries of the genre became wider and more diffuse. Along the way are many small details in the music that will delight even listeners who have heard these pieces many times. The sound environment of the Menuhin Hall is ideal for Donohoe's aims.–James Manheim
