KHATIA BUNIATISHVILI / NUERNBERG / RACHMANINOFF N°2 / 3rd mov.

Sergei Rachmaninoff / Piano Concerto N°2 C-minor op. 18 / 3rd Mov. Allegro scherzando Khatia Buniatishvili / Staatsphilharmonie Nürnberg / Marcus Bosch Captivating, thrilling and inspiring: great sensitive performance with wonderful passionate and extrovert approach by the immensely gifted young French-Georgian pianist, which immediately reminded me of my very first vinyl of this concerto, back in the early 1960’s: Sviatoslav Richter, Warsaw Philharmonic, Stanislaw Wislocki. Miss Buniatishvili was in congenial manner accompanied by the fine musicians of “Staatsphilharmonie Nürnberg“ under the direction of Marcus Bosch. Recorded live 23/07/2017 at Europe’s biggest Open Air with classical music, inmidst an audience of cheerful people in the green of Nuernberg’s Luitpoldhain. All three movements Encore (Debussy, Clair de Lune) 1st. mov. 2nd. mov. 3rd. mov.
