Description:
Award winning, Ukrainian born pianist Anna Shelest, known as a champion of women composers, is featured in two exciting works for piano and orchestra by historically significant women composers. Clara Schumann’s only Piano Concerto is testament to her considerable talent as a composer and virtuoso pianist. The work is steeped in the Romantic tradition with lush harmonies and longing melodies. Chaminade’s exciting work is brilliant in orchestral colour and pianistic technique. Brahms’ symphonic masterpiece sometimes considered the composer’s “pastoral” symphony, at times envelops and soars like a Romantic Cathedral.
