This is a very compelling performance of Tchaikovsky's Op.44. Perhaps too expansive for my taste, but skilfully well played and always convincent. Postnikova and Rozhdestvensky make a good match in this music and as a great advantage, they chose the composer's original version.
While she is known to many for her recordings of the complete piano output of Tchaikovsky and all five piano concertos of Prokofiev, Viktoria Postnikova has played a broad range of solo, chamber, and concerto repertory, from J.S. Bach and Haydn to Chopin, Rachmaninov, and Shostakovich. In addition, Postnikova has played less traditional fare by Busoni, Ives, and Janácek, and contemporary works by Schnittke and Boris Tishchenko. But it is not only her eclectic repertory that sets Postnikova apart from most other pianists, it is also the individuality of her interpretations, which often involve daringly slow tempos, as in her recordings of the Busoni Concerto and Tchaikovsky First. Postnikova has toured throughout Europe, the Americas, Japan, and elsewhere, and appeared with the major orchestras of New York, Boston, Chicago, London, Berlin, Amsterdam, and Moscow. She often collaborated with violinist Yehudi Menuhin in sonatas by Mozart, Brahms, and Beethoven. Postnikova has made numerous recordings for such labels as Melodiya, Decca, Erato, and Chandos.
