Immerse yourself in the captivating world of 19th-century Polish classical music with Howard Shelley's exquisite album, "Piano Concertos." Released on January 1, 2013, under The Fryderyk Chopin Institute label, this album is a testament to Shelley's virtuosity and his deep connection with the romantic era's piano concertos.
The album spans a generous 70 minutes, featuring two complete piano concertos that showcase the brilliance of Ignacy Feliks Dobrzyński and Franciszek Lessel. Shelley's interpretation of Dobrzyński's "Uwertura do opery 'Monbar czyli Flibustierowie'" sets the stage with its dramatic overture, followed by the three movements of Lessel's Piano Concerto in C Major, Op. 14. The album concludes with Dobrzyński's Piano Concerto in A-Flat Major, Op. 2, a piece that highlights Shelley's technical prowess and emotional depth.
Howard Shelley, a renowned pianist and conductor, brings these compositions to life with his signature elegance and precision. His playing is both sensitive and powerful, offering a fresh perspective on these lesser-known works. The album is a delightful exploration of the rich musical heritage of Poland, making it a valuable addition to any classical music enthusiast's collection.
