Product-Information:
The two piano concertos of Shostakovich, though strikingly different from each other, have both become twentieth-century classics. The first has long been one of Marc-André Hamelin's party pieces and we are delighted to have paired him with Andrew Litton, a conductor who knows these works backwards (he has recorded the second Concerto as pianist!), to give the resulting performances a vitality and flair, which we think places them amongst the greatest.
The Shchedrin concerto, though less known, is no less enjoyable. There is brilliance in both the piano writing and the orchestration, and the surprise appearance in the finale of a jazz trio including vibraphone and drum kit is sure to bring the house down.
One of our records of the year!
Rezensionen
»it's on the basis of interpretation that Hamelin earns a top recommendation here, and he's sympathetically supported by Litton and the excellent Scottish ensemble … those looking for their first recordings of the Shostakovich concertos won't go wrong with Hamelin« (Fanfare, USA)
Reviews
Sterep 03/04: »Andre Hamelin bedient Schostakowitsch mit glanzvollen Passagen. Gewaltig schäumt die Musik hoch, höhnen im trompetenumglänzenden Finalsatz des ersten Klavierkonzerts die Ironismen, explodieren die Robustheiten. Wenn Hamelin und die schottischen BBC Musiker sich die motorisch abflitzenden Einwürfe in Schtschedrins zweitem Klavierkonzert zuspielen, kann man sich der Faszination des pianistischen Feuerwerks nicht entziehen.«Disk 1 von 1 (CD)
