Brahms: Piano Concerto No.2

[Machine Translation] Born in Argentina in 1969, pianist Nelson Goerner won a prize at the 1990 Geneva International Competition, and since then has frequently visited Japan, where he has gained popularity for his sensitive and beautiful music. The 2009 Brahms concert attracted attention not only for Gellner's magnificent solo playing, but also for Odaka's perfect control of the NHK Symphony Orchestra. The piano and orchestra were in competition with each other and spun out a beautiful Brahms, including the horn solo in the opening movement and the cello in the third movement, which were masterpieces of virtuosity. (Performed by ) Nelson Gellner (piano) / Tadaaki Otaka (conductor) / NHK Symphony Orchestra

1969年アルゼンチン生まれのピアニスト、ネルソン・ゲルナー。1990年のジュネーヴ国際コンクールで入賞して以来、日本にも度々来日して繊細、かつ美しい音楽を奏でて人気を獲得しています。この2009年のブラームスは、ゲルナーの堂々たる独奏だけでなく、N響を完璧にコントロールした尾高の指揮にも注目が集まりました。冒頭のホルンソロや第3楽章のチェロなど、要所要所での名技を含め、ピアノとオーケストラが拮抗しながら、ひたすら美しいブラームスを紡ぎ出していきます。【演奏】ネルソン・ゲルナー(ピアノ)/尾高忠明(指揮)/NHK交響楽団
