At the time of his death in April 2011, Peter Lieberson had planned the present recording, a project he was never to hear realized. The present disc fills out our picture of Lieberson's accomplishments in the concerto genre, placing the spotlight on two previously unrecorded large-scale works, the Piano Concerto No. 3 and the Viola Concerto.
"[The Piano Concerto is] taut and compelling in this performance by Steven Beck and the Odense orchestra, and more striking perhaps than the relaxed, almost neoromantic Viola Concerto...though that is still beautifully crafted and elegantly refined." (Guardian)
