Reference Recordings的目錄中並不常見鋼琴獨奏的專輯,不過他們所發行的鋼琴獨奏專輯可說是張張經典,輯輯抵買,每一張都是鋼琴獨奏的示範級錄音。被稱為「鋼琴家中的鋼琴家」的野島實(Minoru Nojima)在日本以鋼琴神童之姿發跡,後追隨歐柏林(Lev Oborin)、Constance Keene 以及 Abram Chasins 等鋼琴大師學習,在 1969 年一舉奪下范克萊本國際鋼琴大賽首獎更讓他為世人所熟知。1986 年他在 RR 所灌錄的「Nojima Plays Liszt」(RR-25)更是讓他聲勢如日中天,這張專輯便是延續上一張專輯的成功經驗,再度由錄音大師 Keith O. Johnson 在加州的歐克斯納德市民廳所留下的精彩錄音。野島所彈奏的拉威爾的「鏡像集」與「夜之精靈」,既精準又夢幻,將曲中特殊的異國情調展露無遺,即使彈奏時的最弱音,您也可以聽到當中細緻而豐富的層次感,音樂廳的殘響恰到好處,營造出深邃動人的空間感,正是鋼琴錄音中最頂級展現!
