Busoni: »Klavierkonzert mit Männerchor«

In the organizer's words:

World-class Russian-American pianist Kirill Gerstein has a big heart for rarities. This includes one of the most unusual piano concertos in music history. It is by Ferruccio Busoni and is even scored for male choir!

The Italian Ferruccio Busoni was a visionary composer and one of the greatest pianists of his time. This double talent was also reflected in his huge, tradition-breaking piano concerto, which he wrote in Berlin in 1904. After all, a male chorus (invisibly placed) joins in the final movement. Kirill Gerstein had already recorded this opus magnum, which was also influenced by Brahms and Liszt, on CD in 2019. And for the "Rondo" magazine it was clear: "From now on you have to be a fan of Busoni's piano concerto."
