Synopsis

Amazon.com
This unusual and fascinating disc combines performances of Dvorák's Piano Concerto by two great Czech pianists. Ivan Moravec plays the most commonly heard edition of the concerto, a revision by the pianist Vilém Kurz; Radoslav Kvapil plays the composer's original score. Just as I prefer the original edition, I also prefer the even greater poetry of Moravec's playing (although Kvapil is no slouch!). Both pianists handle the technical demands of the music well, and both are strongly supported by alert orchestral collaboration. In either performance you are introduced to a neglected masterpiece, offered here at two for the price of one. --Leslie Gerber
