Elmas: Piano Concertos Howard Shelley (piano), Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra / Howard Shelley [ Hyperion Great Romantic Piano Concertos Vol 82 / CD - released 8/Jan/2021 ] If the warmly Romantic bloom on these concertos suggests the spirit of an earlier generation-both works date from the 1880s-the music of Stéphan Elmas retains its own distinctive voice, a voice heard to best advantage in Howard Shelley's persuasive... |
