Rachmaninov: Piano Concertos / Schubert: Sonata No 21 & Impromptus
Khatia Buniatishvili (piano) / Czech Philharmonic Orchestra, Paavo Järvi
[ Sony Classical / 2 CD Box Set ]
Release Date: Friday 14 August 2020
Two classic selling Khatia Buniatishvili recordings for the price of one single CD.
"Buniatishvili's sensitivity, lyricism and jubilance - not to mention flawless technique - suits Rachmaninov's concertos…[his] concertante writing features complex interplay between soloist and ensemble - something that Buniatishvili and the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra achieve to a high level under Paavo Järvi" BBC Music [Rachmaninov]
"Right from the concerto's opening moments, there's tremendous power to Buniatishvili's playing, and her massive technique overcomes every hurdle with ease" Gramophone [Rachmaninov]
"It's a reading of extremes that will either beguile or frustrate… There's no doubting Buniatishvili's considerable pianistic powers, nor her abundant imagination, but overall this seems a disc that promotes her rather than Schubert's sublime music." Gramophone [Schubert]
