Odradek Records is delighted to present the complete Beethoven Piano Concertos
performed by Artur Pizarro and the Sinfonieorchester Wuppertal under the baton
of Julia Jones. This is a recording not to be missed: Artur Pizarros
interpretations are renowned internationally for their insight and nuance, and
this album represents for Pizarro and his fellow musicians a very personal
labour of love, especially when overcoming the obstacles of the pandemic in
order to record together. The majesty, power and innovation of the Beethoven
Piano Concertos is contrasted with a selection of solo pieces by Beethoven;
Romances and Rondos that round off the release with irresistible intimacy. On
this recording Artur Pizarro plays Bechstein grand pianos kindly provided by
Bechstein. Artur Pizarro has recorded a series of highly-acclaimed albums with
Odradek, including the complete Rachmaninov piano music, and Lebensreise, a disc
of music by Robert Schumann, for which Pizarros playing was praised as: soft as
velvet, but muscular and virtuoso if necessary technique and virtuosity are
unconditionally at the service of the composers intentions (Klassiek Centraal).
Pizarro also performed the Poulenc Piano Concerto with the Beethoven
Philharmonie and Thomas Rsner on the album Couleurs, praised in Gramophone
magazine: Pizarro seems delighted to meet the score on its own terms, turning in
a performance of considerable sensitivity and subtlety.
