Christopher Hinterhuber (piano) / Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra, Uwe Grodd

[ Naxos / CD ]

Release Date: Monday 1 November 2010

The fourteen works for piano and orchestra of Ferdinand Ries stand alongside those of Hummel as the most important of their kind from the early decades of the 19th Century.

"[The Introduction and Rondeau Brillant is] a real virtuoso vehicle, to whose demands Hinterhuber rises - as in the concertos - with what seems like effortless ease and affection...If you've yet to make this composer's acquaintance, this is an excellent place to start." International Record Review
