Live, Video: Find classical music concert, opera, ballet and dance reviews | Piano Concerto, FP 146

The early 1950s were marked by the world premières of Prokofiev’s Symphony no. 7 (1952), Poulenc’s Piano Concerto (1950) as well as his Stabat Mater (1951). The most recent offering of The Rest is Noise series at the Southbank Centre encouraged us to place these pieces not just in the 1950s, but also in a wider political and cultural context.

Le second concert du cycle « Groupe des Six » à Radio France proposait un programme composite, dont les différents solistes se sont acquittés avec plus ou moins de bonheur.
