Tomoko  Ogasawara interpreted the Mozart KV 330-332 with the highest mastery: confident in her execution of the structure of the piece she balanced the contrast and built up tension in the smallest of intervals. The success in literally every bar; in virtually every miniscule inconsequential accompanying phrase, in the highly refined and playful comments that solidified in the hands of the pianist, in the timid objections or in the subtly striking register jump.... Ogasawaras’ breathtaking success evoked a whole repertoire of delicate and intimate sesations for the listeners.

Haydns’ Piano Concert in D major came next. Japanese soloist Tomoko Ogasawaras’ performance was exemplary. She played with grace, chiselled precision and authority. One sensed the composer with all his qualities as touched on earlier. I can pay no greater compliment. True, it would be nice - heavens, more than that, a joy - to hear more from her. Haydn was on the programme, however, and  she selflessly gave us the essence of herself.

Frédèric Chopins’ last Ballad Op. 52 in f minor, a cross between the classic sonata form and the romantic concert fantasy, was presented by the artist in a dramatically, epically, and lyrically thrilling way.
