I liked the radiant sunshine of the pianissimo arpeggios - that came over really well. Some other weather effects from Mother Nature though rather small-scaled here - needed a greater sense of urgency from the howling gales... the "storm" wouldn't be so bad in this account.... Needed a greater sense of alarm and again more power from the "mano sinistra". It's not called the "Tempest" for no good reason. Nevertheless, still most enjoyable. - 4*
