Work: Prelude in B flat major, Op.23 no.2

Fine solo playing from cellist-composer Cris Derksen and pianist Tony Siqi Yun lift a somewhat disappointing program centered on Sibelius and Rachmaninov.

Purcell, Mozart... then a half hour of encores. Grigory Sokolov holds the Concertgebouw spellbound. 

Evgeny Kissin gave a performance of immense power, energy and musical intellect in Beethoven's monumental Hammerklavier and a selection of Rachmaninov Preludes.
