Schumann:
Piano Concerto in A minor, Op. 54

Chopin:
Piano Concerto No. 2 in F minor, Op. 21

This Chandos Classics re-issue features the popular coupling of Schumann’s Piano Concerto in A minor and Chopin’s Concerto No. 2 in F minor. Louis Lortie is the soloist with the Philharmonia Orchestra conducted by Neeme Järvi. On the original release, CD Review wrote of the performance of Schumann’s Concerto that ‘[Lortie’s] playing is thrillingly imaginative and I cannot recall ever having heard the Finale sound so physically exciting as it does here’; of the performance of Chopin’s F minor Concerto it remarked: ‘Lortie produces a scintillating reading which resounds in the mind long after the music has ceased.’ For Chandos, Louis Lortie has just embarked on a recording series devoted to solo piano works by Chopin, of which Volume 1 was released in May 2010
