--> original review

András Keller and his Concerto Budapest are on home ground both musically and geographically for their latest recording made in Tacet’s real surround with this coupling of one of Bartók’s most popular and most recorded works the ‘Concerto for Orchestra’ and ‘Hungarian Sketches’ (the latter being the composer’s most popular orchestral transcription, at least on disc), both of which suit them like a glove.

'Hungarian Sketches', sometimes also referred to as ‘Hungarian Pictures', is a short suite consisting of orchestrations by the composer of five piano pieces composed between 1908 and 1911 during Bartók's journey around Romania and Hungary, when he started collecting and arranging folk music. more...

Razor-sharp and crystal-clear transparency

Andras Keller’s interpretation of Bartok’s Concerto for Orchestra does not seek the grand symphonic sound, not the magnificent gesture, but the best possible transparency, supported in this by Tacet’s recording technique and Real Surround sound. more...
