Classical Net Review – Hélène Grimaud Plays Brahms, etc.CD Review Hélène Grimaud is undeniably one of the finest pianists before the public today. These two albums document her incredible talent, and especially show that she is among the foremost interpreters of the piano music of Johannes Brahms. Grimaud's Brahms Second is big, epic and muscular: she brings out so much detail often buried or barely noticeable in other performances, and she captures that often elusive Brahmsian Romanticism, revealing a more human and more sensual side to the composer.
