Title: The Interpretation of Dreams?
Review: Sokolov can boast of an extraordinary technique but his playing is affected and pornographic. When confronted with the absurd opening of the second sonata I shrieked with laughter, whilst the slower etudes were grotesquely self-indulgent and over erotic. Just tuck up with a few back copies of Playboy - also, ignore the abysmal program notes on the back of the cd, since they're almost as disastrous as the playing. Enjoy.
