It's really true that Medtner's music grows on you slowly but inexorably. This is one piece that, almost impossibly, seems more beautiful every time I listen to it: inextricably both heart-breaking and consoling, powerful and infinitely tender. Thanks for posting, and thanks to Hamelin.

@RediForKing I completely agree.

Sorry but I absolutely do not agree with Hamelin's satement that Medtner's music doesn't make the best impression at first. I'm listening to this piece for the first time and I think this is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard.
-
I find Tozer to be a - taffypuller? not sure the exact expression - too often - pushing and pulling tempo in nonsensical places. Hamelin is not the very best, but I have heard his recording of the op. 38 and 39 cycles. His op. 38 no. 1 is wonderful in my opinion, and even better when heard in the context of the whole cycle (too rarely done, unfortunately- but if like me you're already taken with the sonata, it's really worth hearing the whole op. 38 :) )

The greatest of all Reminiscenza interpretations is that of Anna Vinnitskaya.
-
Incredibly well said ---
This is probably one of the best pieces to begin to introduce Medtner to listeners unfamiliar with the genius of this incredible man.
And thank you Mr. Hamelin, clearly a genius as well.
-
mendtner and rachmaninoff are genius but they both have different lucks
-
such gloriously beautiful balance at the beginning - throughout the entire section too!
-
Hamelin and Tozer's Medtner is very different but if you're looking for top of line Medtner that's the way to go.

demidenko's medtner is very dry compared to hamelin's in my opinion. hamelin is almost as much of an expert on medtner as geoffrey tozer is.

Well, Hamelin's Medtner is great, but I don't think he is as consistent quality-wise as Tozer is. Not to mention, Tozer has recorded much more Medtner than Hamelin has.
