Francesco Piemontesi, conductor Manfred Honeck, and the Gewandhausorchester Leipzig present a compelling interpretation of Brahms’ monumental Piano Concerto No. 2. This recording captures the concerto's symphonic scale and virtuosic demands, balanced with intimate, chamber-like dialogues between piano and orchestra. Piemontesi’s nuanced artistry and Honeck’s precise, passionate direction bring depth and clarity to one of Brahms’s most revered works. Complementing the concerto are the Three Intermezzi, Op. 117—introspective piano pieces that reveal Brahms’s lyrical and emotional depth. This release marks Piemontesi’s fifth album with PENTATONE, following acclaimed recordings of Schubert, Bach, Schoenberg, Messiaen, Ravel, and Liszt. Praised by The Times as 'a most refreshing release,' this recording showcases music that is deceptively simple in form yet rich with complex emotional textures.
