Bachtrack top ten: Piano Concertos

We take a look at the ten most popular piano concertos of recent years.

Yip Wing-sie, John Lill and the Hong Kong Sinfonietta shine in Britten and Beethoven

Alan Yu, 18th July

Benjamin Britten’s Variations on a Theme of Frank Bridge is not a work often heard in concert halls but deserves to be performed more often, Hong Kong Sinfonietta conductor Yip Wing-sie said at the start of the concert last night at the City Hall. The orchestra’s rendering of this moving musical tribute vindicated her statement.
