Rachmaninov / Prokofiev: Piano Concertos
Yuja Wang (piano) / Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra of Venezuela, Gustavo Dudamel
[ Deutsche Grammophon / CD ]
Release Date: Monday 10 February 2014
Young Chinese virtuoso Yuja Wang plays two of the most demanding of all piano concertos in one concert, joining an orchestra and conductor of similar age.
The first recording with a soloist for the Simón Bolívar Orchestra and Gustavo Dudamel captures the extraordinary energy levels of a very special evening in Caracas.
This very special concert celebrated the 38th anniversary of the founding of Venezuela's unique music-education system, El Sistema
Yuja Wang describes the performances with the Venezuelans as, "a little explosive but controlled and very communicative"
