Shimizu Kazune

Description:

Shimizu Kazune with outstanding support from Ashkenazy, Rachmaninoff's Rachmaninoff No. 3 with all his might! The Rachmaninoff Piano Concerto No. 3 by Kazunobu Shimizu is finally here. With the outstanding support of Ashkenazy, whom Shimizu admires, he will perform this piece, which is his most special repertoire, with all his might. You can hear his perfect technique and solid pianism. Shimizu's strong drive, Ashkenazy's deep understanding of the piece, and the functionality of the NHK Symphony Orchestra combine to create the heroic and expansive sound of Rachmaninoff. The coupling includes Rachmaninoff's excellent piece, "Musik und Drei". The performance shows a different face from the concerto performance, and the deep resonance of the piece can be heard. This is a disc that speaks volumes about the charm and passion of the current Kazunobu Shimizu. Octavia Records
