Guitar Connection: Arensky - Concerto for Piano in F Minor, Op. 2

Description

Anton Arensky, contemporary and friend of Tchaikovsky and Rimsky-Korsakov and teacher of Rachmaninov and Glazunov, composed this vibrant concerto with its lyrical melodies, heroic solo part, and thunderous orchestration, a bravura piece in the great Russian romantic tradition, and technically accessible to the advanced student, making a beautiful alternative to the Grieg concerto for advancing players. This deluxe 2CD set includes a slow-tempo practice version to help you get up to speed. Includes a printed music score on high-quality ivory paper; a digital stereo compact disc featuring a complete performance of the concerto with orchestra and soloist, and a second performance minus you, the soloist; and a second compact disc containing a full-speed version of the complete version as well as a special -20% slow-tempo version of the accompaniment for practice purposes. The concerto is voluminously indexed for your practice and performance convenience. Performed by Paul Van Ness, piano Accompaniment: Plovdiv Philharmonic Orchestra Conductor: Nayden Todorov
