MAX REGER (1873–1916) / RICHARD STRAUSS (1864–1949)
The Romantic Piano Concerto Volume 53
MAX REGER
Piano Concerto in F minor Op 114
1 Allegro moderato
2 Largo con gran espressione
3 Allegretto con spirito [9'03]
RICHARD STRAUSS
4 Burleske in D minor
Marc-André Hamelin, piano
Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin / Ilan Volkov
The Reger concerto has a formidable reputation – dense, harmonically complex and with far too many notes for the average pianist. Who better then to decipher it than Marc-André Hamelin? In his hands this rarely recorded behemoth reveals both passion and a lyricism so often lost in lesser performances. He is wonderfully partnered by Ilan Volkov and the Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester who share the pianist’s desire to elucidate an often misunderstood work.
While the Reger concerto comes from the end of his career, the Strauss Burleske is a product of that composer’s prodigious youth. This ebullient work has long been a Hamelin ‘party-piece’, and he plays it with an unmatched brilliance which surely captures the essence of this humorous music and will have the listener on the edge of his seat.
