| When the
"Rhapsody" needed diabolical bite, Bannister had
the nimbleness and muscle to produce. When the music went
for luxury -- as Rachmaninoff usually does, sooner or later
-- Bannister delivered that, too. She not only made the filigree
glitter, but she flecked even the speediest bits with contrasts
of color.
-The Charlotte Observer
“...the excellent pianist Tanya
Bannister shaped things with impressive virtuosity.”
-- The London Times
“…[Tanya Bannister] is clearly an artist to
watch … Accordingly Bannister plays up the music’s
dynamism and occasionally restless spirit … Yet although
she possesses enviable articulate and accurate fingers, she
is also sensitive to the music’s many lyrical asides.
A most impressive Naxos debut.”
- BBC Music Magazine
Bannister is an expressive pianist who plays with feeling
and emotional involvement. Her technical skills are equally
impressive, and she had ample opportunity to display
both during her well-chosen program, which ranged from
Bach
to Prokofiev
