he iconoclastic British independent classical label Unicorn Records achieved a global reputation for showcasing rare and worthy repertoire as well as both emerging and underrated artists — and always in superbly engineered recordings. One of the first "breakthrough" artists launched by the label was pianist Kathryn Stott, whose remarkable Chopin recital, an outstanding release from the label's early years, returns to the international catalogue at a super-value price.

Kathryn Stott's Chopin is very romantic, seldom understated, with a wide dynamic range… she can change from a raptly gentle manner to a passionate ardour, yet …she touches the listener by her very calmness. … Right from the start she opens your ears to the mystery of shadowland and night. Her playing is both deeply felt and sensitive, and always with melody beguilingly sung. … I've rarely enjoyed it more.
