"Elder paces each work perfectly, giving Kim room to breathe, particularly in the songful adagio of the first concerto, reducing the strings to a magical murmuring whisper. There are more glorious orchestral colours in the monumental second concerto, with Kim in magisterial form, particularly in the driving allegro appassionato. This special alchemy is highly recommended."
- Stephen Pritchard, The Guardian
This recording of Brahms Piano Concertos pairs the insurpassable Sunwook Kim with the expertise of Sir Mark Elder and his Hallé. Glorious orchestral passages abound with Kim's expressive interpretations and technical prowess on full display. The chemistry between soloist, conductor and ensemble is on this recording not to be missed.
