SCHUMANN, R.: Piano Concerto / Introduction and Allegro appassionato (Jandó)

Schumann’s perennially beautiful Piano Concerto in A minor is one of the great Romantic masterpieces, a supreme blend of youthful exuberance, virtuoso writing for the piano, strikingly fresh ideas and intimate poetic feeling. This disc includes the rare couplings of Schumann’s two single movement concert pieces for piano and orchestra, his only other works for this combination.
