Title: Arcadi Volodos, Berliner Philharmoniker, Seiji Ozawa – Works by Tchaikovsky & Rachmaninoff (2003)
Genre: Classical
Format: MCH SACD ISO + DSF DSD64 + Hi-Res FLAC
Arcadi Volodos delivers a strikingly revisionist 2003 recording of Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No. 1 in B flat minor, Op. 23, with the Berlin Philharmonic under Seiji Ozawa, eschewing the expected high-powered romanticism for a delicate, crystal-clear interpretation that emphasizes emotional depth in quiet moments and subtle tempo variations, aligning with the lighter pianos of Tchaikovsky’s era. Known for his virtuosic Liszt performances and complex transcriptions, Volodos avoids bombast, navigating technical challenges with effortless clarity and breathing new life into the concerto’s modulations and arcs. The album’s seven Rachmaninov encores showcase his formidable technique with a fuller, more expansive fragrance, displaying a lightness and finesse that complement the concerto’s restrained approach. Sony’s exceptional engineering in the Berlin Philharmonie captures every detail of Volodos’ passagework, making this a highly recommended recording for those seeking a fresh take on this iconic concerto.
