Czerny: Piano Concertos
Howard Shelley (piano), Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra, Howard Shelley (conductor)
CDA68138
Active in every genre other than opera, Czerny is now remembered largely for the numerous piano studies he wrote as pedagogical aids. Which makes Howard Shelley’s advocacy of the three virtuoso works for piano and orchestra recorded here, two of them for the first time, all the more welcome: this is music which cannot fail to appeal.
