Rachmaninov: Piano Concertos Nos. 1 & 2

Rachmaninov: Piano Concertos Nos. 1 & 2

Andsnes; Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra; Pappano

Yet another recording of the Second Piano Concerto but are we complaining? Not when it is Leif Ove Andsnes at the keyboard and the Berlin Philharmonic conducted by Antonio Pappano in one of his rare forays into orchestral repertoire. This is breathtaking stuff.

"It is certainly a worthy contender for the Top Ten when aided by the world-class Berlin Phil, a conductor who is in the Barbirolli class of adroit accompanists, superb recorded sound and a beautifully voiced piano."
Gramophone

"Commanding and sensitive accounts of both concertos..."
Penguin Guide

"Both musicians have an instinctive feel for this music's special atmosphere, a tone which reveals Rachmaninov as the musical poet of pre-revolutionary Russia. (Live performance of the First Concerto)"
