"Love, delirium and death" is the subject matter of this programme, most of which was first set in words and then transferred to music. (In retrospect, delirium snuck in more frequently, even when it was not intended.) In choosing the works, I was also careful in regard to their harmonic complexities and mutual relationships: to me, they share a gazillion of implied links, whether thematic or harmonic.

The release in 2005 of Yevgeny's first disc, a selection of Scarlatti sonatas, caused a sensation. A number of reviewers compared it favourably to the legendary recordings by Horowitz in the same repertoire, and on the BBC Radio 3 CD Review, the result was described as follows: "It's as if he's dragged Scarlatti off a dusty museum shelf and brought him out into the sunshine where both he and the music are happily basking." Sudbin’s following discs focussed on Russian composers from later periods - Rachmaninov, Medtner, Tchaikovsky and Scriabin - and received similar acclaim in the international music press.

"From the opening octave cascades to the tender warmth of the first theme, and on to its filigree development, Sudbin's playing had the delicacy of the composer's own of this work, and his dynamics were calibrated with comparable finesse. Abetted by Yan Pascal Tortelier and the BBC Philharmonic, the second movement's Chopinesque mood came gracefully across, while the springtime charm of the closing allegro was irresistible."
