Dvorak - Piano Concerto Op. 33 & The Golden Spinning Wheel on CD

Description

Performances recorded live in Amsterdam – Nikolaus Harnoncourt reunites with French pianist Pierre-Laurent Aimard after the success of their electrifying cycle of Beethoven Piano Concertos. The Piano Concerto is an underrated gem from Dvořák’s catalogue. Many critics commended the clarity and freshness of Aimard’s approach to a work that is notoriously difficult to pull off. The Golden Spinning Wheel was one of Dvořák’s final orchestral pieces, a delightful programmatic narrative based on a popular Czech fairy story. “..the beauty of this performance is its utter naturalness, Aimard easing around the solo part as if he’s been playing it all his life… A magnificent CD.” (Gramophone) “As a whole, this performance is close to ideal.”
