If, as Liszt himself dubbed it, Hexaméron is 'a monster', it's a monster which certainly holds no terrors for Marc-André Hamelin, and the encounter between them makes for some thrilling pianism. The remainder of the recital - high-octane transformations of nineteenth-century operatic favourites - is every bit as electrifying, from a musician who never ceases to astonish whatever the repertoire.
