BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra / cond. Thomas Dausgaard / Rachmaninov Piano Concerto No. 2
“There are not enough stars in the heavens to recognise adequately the calibre of the extraordinary musical experience slammed at its capacity audience on Thursday night by the BBC SSO, conductor Thomas Dausgaard and young Russian pianist Denis Kozhukhin. So let’s settle for five and let your imagination invade the firmament for more…
A glorious interpretation of Rachmaninov’s Second Piano Concerto by Kozhukhin that had everything, but with the slush, gush and mush excised. Wonderful: a thinking person’s Rach Two; very economical on Kleenex abuse. Kozhukhin stayed on to play a life-enhancing version of Liszt’s great Benediction de Dieu dans la Solitude. Humbling beauty; now where’s that firmament?”
