In March 2019, Thomas Adés conducted the Boston Symphony Orchestra and Kirill Gerstein in the world premiere of his Concerto for Piano and Orchestra, subsequently named one of the Best Premieres in the New York Times’ Best Classical Music of 2019. On this new album, the live recording of the concerto is paired with Adés’ “wonderfully compelling” (The Guardian) Totentanz, featuring baritone Mark Stone and mezzo-soprano Christianne Stotijn.
On Concerto for Piano and Orchestra:

“Simultaneously thoughtful and musical, rooted in the past but forward-looking, and also crowd-pleasing” (Wall Street Journal)
“With a blend of staggering virtuosity and tenderness that fits [Kirill Gerstein] like a bespoke suit” (The New York Times)

“Thrilling: one of his best” (The Times)
