Young pianist Jan Lisiecki explores a pair of early Romantic masterpieces with the acclaimed Orpheus Chamber Orchestra: Mendelssohn s Piano Concertos in G minor and D minor. Wishing to give listeners further insight into Mendelssohn s dazzling keyboard writing beyond the well-known concertos, Lisiecki also performs a selection of some of Mendelssohn s most brilliant pieces for solo piano: the VARIATIONS SERIEUSES, the Rondo capriccioso, and the Venetian Boat Song from SONGS WITHOUT WORDS.
