Digital Booklet

Pianist Boris Giltburg joins forces with Vasily Petrenko and the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra to present Shostakovich’s two piano concertos, spanning a period of almost 30 years. The youthful Concerto No. 1 is a masterful example of eclecticism, its inscrutable humour and seriousness allied to virtuoso writing enhanced by the role for solo trumpet, performed here by Rhys Owens. Written as a birthday gift for his son, Shostakovich’s Second Piano Concerto is light-spirited with a hauntingly beautiful slow movement. The album also features world premieres of Giltburg's own piano arrangements of two string quartets, made with the permission of the composer’s family.
