Reviews of these perfomances seem to divide into those who decry Peskanov's alleged lack of authenticity, and those who appreciate his fresh and original approach to these pieces. I grew up with the Rifkin performances, which remain "standard," but Alexander Peskanov tranforms these pieces to the deepest art. The performance of Solace evokes the pathos of Chopin and the melodic invention of Schubert. I agree with David Boyce that it surely is the finest of all recorded versions of this haunting piece.
Of course one isn't going to agree with every tempo choice, but one cannot deny the thought and integrity of the interpretations--one hears new things with each performance. Just as one can prefer Rubinstein to Horowitz in Chopin (or Serkin to Perahia or Uchida in Schubert), one learns and hears something new and different in each interpretation. We are fortunate to have a range of interpreters.
Peskanov brings a new depth and creative energy to these pieces, infusing them with poetic beauty redolent of the Romantics, but uniquely American at the same time. Let's give up on the idea of a single "definitive" or "authentic" performance. Peskanov's voicing, his choice of repeats, the sheer warmth of his sound --the sonic quality of this recording dwarfs previous efforts--all deserve the highest praise. Many other recordings sound as if they were recorded on a tinny upright--"authentic" perhaps, but not "definitive"!
Peskanov brings out both the joy and pathos of this music. Rather than the "self-indulgence" criticized by one reviewer, I find a rich and musical sensibility that most music lovers will appreciate and applaud. You will be glad to have this recording. Scott Joplin: Piano Rags

$19.95
L-Glutamine Peptide - 10x More Potent than Regular Glutamine. This breakthrough secret delivery formula supplies critical building blocks for lean muscle mass tissue. Scientific research has shown that Glutamine Peptide enhances BCAA's absorption and increases muscle glycogen for fast recovery and increases lean muscle mass by 10-20% when added to your favorite protein powder. Studies have also shown that peptide-bound amino acids have superior absorption over free form amino such as L-Glutamine. Recent Clinical research has shown that under stress conditions the human body requires increased amounts of glutamine, because the body's potential to synthesize this amino is insufficient to fulfill the needs. Extra intake of L-Glutamine results in improved nitrogen balance, better performance, increased immune responsiveness, and increased lean muscle mass. Glutamine Peptide is used for: Building lean muscle tissue, strenthening immune system and supporting protein synthesis.
