A dream for almost every conductor: Stravinsky's Petrushka!
A dream for almost every conductor: Stravinsky's Petrushka gathers together so many bright colours and bouncing sounds that the baton almost starts to dance. Rachmaninov wrote his famous Piano Concerto no. 2 following a period of deep depression. Fortunately the hypnotherapist Nikolaj Dahl helped him to clamber out of the dark hole. The Russian-Lithuanian pianist Lukas Geniušas has Rachmaninov’s virtuoso melancholy perfectly at his fingertips.
