This CD presents two recording premieres – the first ever
recording of the Tchaikovsky Concert Fantasy Op.56 and the first
recording of the original version of Tchaikovsky’s 2nd Piano
Concerto. At the time of its premiere, the 2nd piano concerto
had been deemed too long and, until relatively recently, the
work has always been performed in a drastically cut revision by
the pianist Alexander Siloti. Here Nikolayeva reveals that not
only was she an intellectual pianist but also a virtuoso who
could ‘barnstorm’ with the best of them.
