Vladimir Jurowski & Yunchan Lim

Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin Beethoven, Chopin, Brahms

In a sense, Chopin's 2nd Piano Concerto was a success even before it was premiered: a press representative got access to a private performance and praised the concerto in glowing terms! That the work more than deserves this praise will be shown by the Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin together with pianist Yunchan Lim.
