Ukrainian pianist Vadym Kholodenko, the 2013 Cliburn Gold Medalist, kicks off his complete cycle of Prokofiev piano concertos with this recording of the dark-hued but dazzling Concerto No. 2, coupled with the less familiar Concerto No. 5, accompanied by the Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Miguel Harth-Bedoya.
