Tchaikovsky and Chopin Piano Concertos.
Collaboration with Vladimir Ashkenazy and the St. Petersburg Philharmonic Orchestra.
Romantic. Subtle. Special.
White Nights in St. Petersburg, a beautiful and prestigious hall of Russia's oldest Philharmonic and two 1st piano concerti. Pure Romanticism with a strong Russian touch.
Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky
Piano Concerto No. 1 Op. 23
Frederic Chopin
Piano Concerto No. 1 Op. 11
These are warm-blooded, big-boned, panoramic accounts, richly and subtly expressive without displaying a hint of bombast or manipulative self-indulgence.
