Since winning the 11th International Tchaikovsky Competition in 1998, Denis Matsuev has established a reputation as one of Russia's leading pianists. His début release on the Mariinsky label featuring Rachmaninov’s Piano Concerto No 3 and Paganini Variations, received widespread acclaim. His second Mariinsky release featured piano concerts by Shostakovich and Shchedrin, which was awarded Clef du Mois by ResMusica and ***** by Audiophile Audition. For his third release, Matsuev turns to the music of Tchaikovsky, with the two Piano Concertos. His first Piano Concerto is one of his most popular works: Tchaikovsky balances core motivic elements with a sense of lyrical spontaneity to create a technically challenging but instantly appealing work.

The Piano Concerto No.2 was dedicated to pianist Nikolai Rubinstein, with whom the composer had a close working relationship. Tchaikovsky wrote, “I want to dedicate it to N. G. Rubinstein in recognition of his magnificent playing of my First Concerto and of my Sonata, which left me in utter rapture after he performed it for me in Moscow.” After a tremendous piano cadenza in the first movement, Tchaikovsky allows other instruments to shine, with prominent solos for violin and cello in the second movement.

Composer: Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky
Performer: Denis Matsuev
Conductor: Valery Gergiev
Orchestra/Ensemble: St. Petersburg Mariinsky Theater Orchestra

Reviews: This is the first recording in Super Audio sound of the Tchaikovsky Piano Concerto No. 2 in G major, Op. 44, a work that has everything the first one does except for a tune that leaves you humming. Russia has never been known for audiophile recordings, but the team hired by St. Petersburg's Mariinsky Theatre delivers here, putting Denis Matsuev front and center where he belongs and giving Valery Gergiev and the Mariinsky Orchestra space to spread out in the background. It's an awesome technical use of the space, and it communicates the essence of what Matsuev is: a blood-and-guts-and-thunder pianist of the old school, when pianists had to be a bit larger than life. Are there subtler performances of these concertos? Sure. Are there those in which the melodies of the Piano Concerto No. 1 in B flat minor, Op. 23, sing a bit more passionately? Yes, most definitely. But are there others in which the intricacies of the Piano Concerto No. 2, in Tchaikovsky's own version, are so thoroughly nailed to the wall? Not many, and the sheer power in the first concerto has been matched only by the greats of the past. There's nothing exactly groundbreaking here, but for a Tchaikovsky concertos recording that will shake the walls, this is a good pick.
