Röntgen, J.: Piano Concertos 3, 6 And 7 Triendl, Kristiansand Symphony Orchestra, Baumer

This recording presents impressive Romantic music by Julius Rontgen, who was an outstanding pianist and often interpreted his own compositions. His Piano Concerto No. 3 is more reminiscent of Brahms and not at all of the New German School of Liszt adherents. His Concerto No. 6 has one movement and lasts a mere fifteen minutes. It is Rontgen’s posthumous triumph that his two last concertos have never disappeared from the repertoire and have continued to be regularly performed together.
