Piano concertos by Chopin

A master of romantic seduction, Frédéric Chopin favoured salon intimacy over concert halls. Unsurprisingly, he composed no symphonies, and his piano-orchestra works date from early career fame-seeking. He premiered his only piano concertos at age 20 in Warsaw. François-Frédéric Guy now revisits their lyricism, technical refinement, and Chopin’s unmistakable Polish voice.
