”… highly recommended for its pure, unfiltered perspective of these much-loved concerti. The pursuit of artistic truth over vapid virtuosity and its soul-stirring sincerity make this recording a fine addition to every piano-lover’s collection.”

"The Canadian pianist Yaroslav Senyshyn is Professor of Music and Moral Philosophy at Simon Fraser University in British Columbia. He is an honest to goodness academic philosopher, with the scholarly publications to prove it... Senyshyn, not surprisingly, is drawn to the Romantic repertoire…As a student of moral philosophy, Senyshyn has the capacity to empathize with the inner lives of the composers he performs, giving their works a wholeness that can only come from a deep appreciation for their entire personality. He possesses a big, rich, highly individual tone, while being unafraid to create a very wide dynamic range… Senyshyn varies his tempos in accordance with the total musical substance of a passage. This is most notable in the last movement of Chopin's Second Concerto, where Senyshyn finds depth in figurations that most pianists just treat as bravura passagework. Senyshyn's playing really swings, with heart and soul that makes the listener want to dance… If there is a moral, ethical way to interpret each composer correctly, Senyshyn seems to be practising it… I only hope that this is one of the rare recordings that brings an artist to wider public awareness. Highly recommended."
