Digital Booklet

"Five Stars ... a glorious affirmation of its place in the concerto canon ... Rattle’s performance, massive and thrillingly wild, conveys the sense of a work that’s both experimental and at the same time profoundly assured."
- The Guardian
"... not only makes for riveting listening but also makes musical sense, coming across as a genuine symphony, one the composer knew he had built to last, as Simon Rattle and the Berliners fabulously demonstrate."
- ClassicalSource.com
"Zimerman injects both delicacy and virtuosity into the dialogue with Simon Rattle's orchestra and also holds the key, as probably only a Pole could do, to the serious yet wistful undercurrents of this work. Yet Rattle's own input is distinguished ... who better to summon up (the warmth of the work) than the luxurious-sounding Berliners?"
- BBC Music Magazine
The Berliner Philharmoniker and Simon Rattle come together for this critically-celebrated recital of Lutosławski's orchestral works, including the Piano Concerto, written in 1988 and dedicated to the featured pianist here, Krystian Zimerman.
