Sudbin:Minnesota Orch:Vanska - Piano Concertos Nos. 3 24

The sequel to BISSACD1758 (2010), Yevgeny Sudbin and Osmo V�nsk� go one step further and include Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 24, which is often regarded as having been the inspiration for Beethoven's work. The mood is dramatic, even Romantic - memorably described as an 'explosion of passion, of dark tragic emotions'.Mozart's piano concerto calls for the performer to come up with cadenzas of their own for the first and last movements. Sudbin pushes the boundaries of the acceptable in an electric performance.There is a true give-and-take relationship between Sudbin and the Minnesota Orchestra, which yields highly engaged and creative performances in these mainstays of the piano repertoire.
