The Portuguese pianist Artur Pizarro, now a mainstay of ODRADEK, has recorded the complete Beethoven piano concertos. Pizarro's recording of Beethoven's complete piano concertos is one of the best in recent years. Born in 1968, Artur Pizarro won first prize at the Leeds International Piano Competition in 1990, and has made a name for himself internationally. He has made a few recordings, but somehow his Beethoven recordings have been sporadic, with only concertos No. 3, No. 4, and No. 5. Finally, the long-awaited complete cycle has appeared. Pizarro's advanced technique and clear tone make each note of the piano shine clearly. His expression is detailed and well-developed, yet thoughtful and moderate, and he always pays attention to enhancing the splendor of the music. Each piece is a performance that leaves the listener with a sense of fulfillment. Incidentally, Pizarro plays a little trick in the famous opening of No. 4, when he presents the theme for solo piano. In addition to Pizarro's piano, Julia Jones is an excellent conductor: born in Droitwich, near Worcester, England, in 1961, she is a mid-career British conductor who served as general music director of the Wuppertal Symphony Orchestra and Wuppertal Opera House from 2016 to 2021.This recording was made at the end of his tenure, and it is clear from the sound alone that the Wuppertal Symphony Orchestra is playing exactly as Jones intended. The music is crisp, tight, and light on its feet, and the attention to detail and tender love is wonderful. The slow movements of all five pieces are especially beautiful and full of emotion. The two romances were arranged for solo piano by Pissarro himself. This is a must for Beethoven lovers and piano concerto lovers.
