Francesco Piemontesi plays Liszt's Piano Concerto no 2

The RAI National Orchestra performs Liszt's second piano concerto followed by Bartók's Concerto for Orchestra.

From the Arturo Toscanini Auditorium in Turin, Francesco Piemontesi and the RAI National Orchestra perform Liszt's second piano concerto. Less virtuosic than his first, the work is set in one continuous movement with themes developing throughout, passing in dialogue between the solo piano and the orchestra. Bartók's Concerto for Orchestra completes the concert. Penny Gore presents.
