Beethoven: Piano Concertos Nos. 2 & 5
Release Date: August 05, 1997 SK62926 CD Longplay On Beethoven Piano Concertos Nos.2 and 5, Evgeny Kissin records these Beethoven Concertos for the first time -- with first time collaborator Maestro James Levine. This is a historic recording, at a turning point of what promises to be a long and illustrious career for Evgeny Kissin, who is universally regarded by critics and fans alike as the world's greatest young pianist. The New York Times recently heralded Kissin as "the pianist talent of his generation," stating "just when we thought the grand Romantic pianist was gone forever, a new one has arrived." The young Russian is repeatedly compared to such legendary greats as Horowitz and Richter, and embodies a level of talent that even critics refer to as "genius." Now Kissin plays Beethoven, performing a repertoire of piano concertos that reveals the whole range of Beethoven as interpreted by one of the greatest pianists of our time. |
