Francesco Piemontesi, conductor Manfred Honeck, and the Gewandhausorchester Leipzig come together in a new recording of Brahms’ Piano Concerto No. 2. This concerto transcends the traditional form, blending symphonic grandeur with virtuosic brilliance and moments of intimate chamber-like dialogue between piano and orchestra. Piemontesi’s sensitive playing and Honeck’s precise, passionate leadership create a richly detailed and moving interpretation of one of Brahms’s greatest masterpieces.
Alongside the concerto are Brahms’ Three Intermezzi, Op. 117 – quiet, reflective pieces that offer a window into the composer’s most personal thoughts. Francesco Piemontesi, one of today’s most-cherished pianists, presents the fifth release in his exclusive collaboration with PENTATONE, following the widely praised Schubert – Last Piano Sonatas (2019), Bach Nostalghia (2021), Schoenberg, Messiaen & Ravel (2022), and Liszt Transcendental Etudes & Piano Sonata (2023).
