CD Orchestra dell'Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia: Schumann

Description

Released on January 8, 2016, this CD features young Canadian pianist Jan Lisiecki performing Robert Schumann's complete concertante works for piano and orchestra. Lisiecki's mature and sensitive approach to these romantic compositions is complemented by his collaboration with the Orchestra dell'Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia under the baton of conductor Sir Antonio Pappano. The recording includes the iconic Piano Concerto in A minor, Op. 54, as well as lesser-known works such as Introduction and Allegro appassionato, Op. 92, and Introduction and Concert-Allegro, Op. 134. This collection offers listeners a profound and emotive experience of Schumann's music, delivered by exceptional artists.
