Extractions: richardf@soundstage.com Musical Performance Recording Quality Overall Enjoyment If anybody’s picture is on the cover of a recording of a piano concerto, it is usually either the composer’s or the pianist’s; in this case, though, it is the conductor’s. This is one of several releases highlighting Boulez on the occasion of his 80th birthday (March 26). Boulez has been associated with Bartók’s music for decades, and has recorded more than a few of the Hungarian master’s works more than once. These concertos were among the first Bartók works he performed, and he is quoted as regarding them as the "climax of his output." About 35 years ago he recorded all three of them for EMI with a single soloist, Daniel Barenboim. At that time Barenboim was definitely not associated with the music of Bartók, but in partnership with Boulez, he proved an effective advocate, and so do Zimerman, Andsnes and Grimaud now.

Lang Lang - Live at Carnegie Hall jetzt bestellen Stereoplay 01 / 05: "Vor allem im janusköpfigen c-Moll-Konzert gelingt es Martha Argerich, mit geradezu kindlicher Offenheit und Heldenmut, den fast verloren gegangenen Gestus des Improvisatorischen, des rebellischen Experiments, des neuartigen Dur-Moll-Vexierspiels zu reanimieren und so das Mysterium des ersten Satzes, die Seelentiefe des zweiten und das Verwirrspiel des dritten neu erlebbar zu machen."
