Jaap Nico Hamburger
Concerto for Piano and Orchestra
Concerto pour piano et orchestre
This dramatic concerto is full of drive, explosive energy and pathos. While reminiscent of great works by Prokofiev and Shostakovich, it is truly a unique work among Canadian piano concertos and modern classical compositions.
Ce concerto dramatique est plein de dynamisme, d'énergie explosive et de pathos. Bien qu'il rappelle les grandes œuvres de Prokofiev et de Chostakovitch, c'est vraiment une œuvre unique parmi les concertos pour piano canadiens et les compositions classiques modernes.

Presse:
“ This is a powerful, intense work, largely tonal and thoroughly approachable yet unusual in a number of respects.“ - Records International, September 2020
“ Hamburger's compositions certainly takes nods to names like Mahler, Feinberg and Prokofiev, but of course at this point his work resides in a league all its own, as Weisman, the orchestra and de Kort certainly do justice to his vision on this varied and unpredictable effort.“ - Take Effect, December 2020
“ The orchestra and soloist deliver a top-notch performance of a work that will please those who enjoy new sounds created in a Late-Romantic style.“ - The Whole Note, November 2020
