The chief focus of the CD, however, is Yevgeny Sudbin’s thrilling, beautifully shaped performance of the First Piano Concerto. Sudbin plays the latter version, as most people do, and he brings to it all the youthful freshness and fluency that Rachmaninov himself observed in it. Sudbin has a natural feel for the Rachmaninov idiom: the piano-playing has depth of tone, subtlety and richness of texture, and scintillating dynamism allied to acute lyrical sensibility. The orchestra, too, is
on its mettle.
