Paderewski and Chopin: Piano Concertos
Acclaimed pianist Claire Huangci partners with another emerging talent, conductor Shiyeon Sung, for her first orchestral album. It features two concertos written by two more young musicians, Frédéric Chopin and Ignacy Jan Paderewski. Chopin's Piano Concerto No. 1 in E minor (1830) is an often played work, but Paderewski's Piano Concerto in A minor, first performed in 1889, is underrated but vibrant. The orchestra is the Deutsche Radio Philharmonie.
