cubanmiamiboy Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Last night I had the immense pleasure to witness one of the most moving renderings of Chopin's "Piano Concerto # 2". Considered one of the world leading interpreters of Chopin's music, Garrick Ohlsson did the honors at the Arsht Center, along with the wonderful Wroclaw Philharmonic Orchestra, from Poland-(Wroclaw, the old capital of Silesia, place of our long time friend Albrecht, Duke of Silesia.. ;-) Anyhow, Giselle aside, the magnificent orchestra was superbly conducted by maestro Jacek Kaspszyk. The program also included Lutoslawski's lovely "Little Suite" and Schoenberg's magnificent orchestration of Brahms' "Piano Quartet # 1". Bravis! Link to comment
