“Five stars: A Liszt recital as unexpected as it is brilliant”

“This is my first encounter with Kaykov, who earned his doctorate from the Manhattan School of Music in 2020, but this entire CD, titled Liszt: Unrivalled (2022, Odradek Records), displays remarkable flair and presages a sterling concert career. He plays the Sonata, and indeed everything on the program, with virtuoso confidence, sure musical instincts, and an obvious love of music-making.”
