Tchaikovsky: Concerto no.1 in B flat minor
solo works by Tchaikovsky, Chopin and Liszt
Daniil Trifonov (piano); Mariinsky Orchestra, Valery Gergiev
Mariinsky MAR0530 (hybrid SACD)
Last year's Tchaikovsky Competition prize-winner brings a satisfying mix of panache and sensitivity to this much-recorded concerto, and receives exhilarating and searching from Gergiev's players. The accompanying recital is a welcome alternative to a second war horse, and his readings of Liszt's Schubert transcriptions are particularly fine.
