She is no less powerful and quicksilver in the Prokofiev, where Rachmaninov’s romanticism is taken into an altogether darker and more menacing place, and it is only on reflection that the Rachmaninov seems less memorable than from, say, Horowitz, Gilels or Cliburn, where slower tempi allow for a greater sense of breadth, expansiveness and heroics. But make no mistake, this is a talent with a vengeance, the youthful partnership with Dudamel is ideal and both performances, recorded in Caracas, are understandably greeted with storms of applause.
