BUSONI Piano Concerto
Roberto Cappello, piano
Corale Luca Marenzio
Orchestra Sinfonica di Roma / Francesco La Vecchia
Busoni’s monumental Piano Concerto was completed in 1904 and remains the longest piano concerto to have been heard in public. He thought of the work as his ‘Italian Symphony’ but this Concerto for piano, orchestra and male chorus is an unclassifiable product, and an extraordinary synthesis of Austro-German and Italian impulses. In its virtuosity and lyricism it is one of the most remarkable works in the repertoire, making use in its final movement of the ‘Hymn to Allah’, from Adam Oehlenschläger’s play Aladdin. Roberto Cappello triumphed at the Premio Busoni competition in 1976 and is a leading international soloist.
Roberto Cappello has won a considerable reputation among contemporary pianists. After triumph in the Premio Busoni in 1976 he embarked on a notable and highly successful career, appearing in leading concert halls throughout the world, either in recital or as a soloist with orchestra or chamber ensemble.
