Emil Gilels (1916-85), unlike his friend and compatriot Sviatoslav Richter, enjoyed playing Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No. 2, Op. 44 just as much as the celebrated Concerto No. 1, Op. 23. Their playing style was very different. Both equally virtuoso, Richter’s flashes of emotion and virtuosity contrast with Gilels’ natural restraint and impressive legato. The two scores here, which met with surprisingly contrasting acclaim, appear only rarely together. |
