WORLD PREMIERE RECORDING [1-22]
Produced in association with BBC Radio 3 and the BBC Concert Orchestra
The year 1888 was a remarkable one for French pianist-composer Cécile
Chaminade. Her large-scale “ballet symphonique” Callirhoë was produced
at Marseilles on 16 March, and a few weeks later, on 18 April, there
followed the Concertstück for piano and orchestra, well received in
Antwerp and soon across the world. Here they make a cherishable
coupling, and Callirhoë is recorded in its complete form for the first
time, proving to be a delightful and varied discovery. Chaminade is
remembered for her many piano miniatures and mélodies, but soloist
Victor Sangiorgio’s brilliant performance of the Concertstück for piano
and orchestra, in which he effortlessly projects its flamboyant pianism,
reminds us of what a romantic and affecting composer Chaminade could be
when given an extended musical canvas.
