Antonin Dvorak's Piano Concerto in G minor, Opus 33
Description on Youtube:
Pianist Sara Davis Buechner performs Antonin Dvorak's Piano Concerto in G minor, opus 33 with the Victoria Symphony and Bernhard Gueller, live at the Royal Theatre in Victoria, B.C., Canada. Antonín Dvořák's youthful Piano Concerto in G minor, op. 33, has received less attention than his beloved Concertos for Violin and Cello. It was prominently revived in the 1940s by Czech pianist Rudolf Firkušný, himself a friend of Dvořák's son-in-law Josef Suk and pupil of Dvořák's associate Vilém Kurz (who extensively re-wrote sections of the piece, a source of some controversy). Sara Davis Buechner, who studied the work with Firkušný during her years as his Juilliard pupil from 1980 - 84, performs the work in its original version here.
