Dvorák: Piano Concerto, Mazurek & Rondo

Antonín Dvořák wrote three concertos for solo instrument and orchestra: for violin, cello and piano. The Piano Concerto, though a masterwork in its genre, is the least performed of these. Also included on this new recording are the Rondo for Cello and Orchestra in G Minor and the Mazurek for Violin and Orchestra Op. 49.

Composer: Antonín Dvorák
Artist: Leonardo Pierdomenico (piano), Czech Chamber Philharmonic Orchestra Pardubice & Vahan Mardirossian (conductor)
Previous albums on Piano Classics by Leonardo Pierdomenico have won enthusiastic praise from the international critics. Of his debut Liszt recital including the Csardas macabre (PCL10151), Fanfare noted: ‘scrupulous performances, featuring exceptional textural clarity and rhythmic resilience, coupled with an often striking attention to harmonic nuance.’ Gramophone awarded it Editor’s Choice: ‘His highly developed technique and cultivated sound, both adaptable to a variety of effects, are wedded to those twin essentials for artistic Liszt playing: imagination combined with thoroughgoing, scrupulous musicality.’
Such qualities illuminate his new recording of the Piano Concerto by Dvořák, made in the Czech Republic with an orchestra who live and breathe the composer’s music. One of his most neglected works, the Piano Concerto requires particularly devoted advocacy as well as formidable virtuosity to overcome the technical shortcomings of Dvořák’s piano writing, but the effort is rewarded with episodes of no less ardent lyricism than the high points of his concertos for violin and cello. The Piano Concerto, however, burns with a ferocity all its own, more similar in that regard to Schumann’s impassioned writing for soloist and orchestra.
The unusual pairings draw on the talents of the Pardubice orchestra’s front desks, with two equally unfamiliar concertante miniatures by Dvořák, the Mazurek for violin and orchestra (dedicated to Pablo de Sarasate) and the Rondo for cello and orchestra intended for Hanus Wihan, who would in time inspire Dvořák to compose the Cello Concerto. Thus the album will complete a Dvořák concerto collection on CD as well as offering a further demonstration of Leonardo Pierdomenico’s artistry.
The concerto unfolds in three movements, each possessing distinct characteristics. The opening movement bursts with energy, introducing the piano and orchestra in a lively dialogue, punctuated by lush melodies and rhythmic motifs. The second movement takes a more introspective turn, offering a lyrical and deeply emotional experience, as the piano and orchestra engage in a heartfelt musical conversation. The final movement exudes exuberance, as Dvořák expertly weaves Slavic folk elements into the fabric of the music, infusing it with dance-like rhythms and vibrant melodies.

Dvořák became known to me almost 45 years ago. Used his music to study for tests while I was in the military. Aced every one. 💯%

아름다운 연주곡 잘 들었습니다~감사합니다~🎵🎻📯🎹🌿🍀☘🌹🌹☘🍀🌿❤❤수고 많으셨습니다~☕

Wunderschöne Interpretation dieses spätromantischen und ethnisch komponierten Konzerts mit klarem doch warmherzigem Klang des genialen Soloklaviers sowie gut vereinigten und perfekt entsprechenden Tönen der anderen Instrumente. Der zweite Satz klingt besonders schön und echt beruhigend. Im Kontrast klingt der dritte Satz echt lebhaft und auch leidenschäftlich. Die beiden zusätzlichen Konzertstücke sind auch wunderschön. Der intelligente und erfahrene Dirigent leitet das ausgezeichnete Kammerorchester im veränderlichen Tempo und mit künstlerisch kontrollierter Dynamik. Alles ist wunderbar!

Es lamentable que este concierto no se interprete con regularidad, pero a la vez es bueno encontrar grabaciones como esta
