"A superb collection from a brilliant young pianist ... Grosvenor brings all of his virtuosic brilliance and musical intelligence to a wide-ranging and very attractive selection of pieces, all immaculately played and crisply recorded."
- Classic FM
British pianist Benjamin Grosvenor presents a typically imaginative and appealing programme of piano music on this 2014 album inspired by the dance form. Shining the spotlight on the music of movement, Dances is a dazzling display of solo works for piano from Bach to boogie woogie via Chopin, Granados, Albeniz, Scriabin and The Blue Danube.
