拉赫曼尼諾夫:鋼琴協奏曲全集/帕格尼尼主題狂想曲 / 盧卡斯.范特捷 鋼琴 / 湯馬斯.布勞納 指揮 / 布拉格交響樂團
盧卡斯.范特捷和拉赫曼尼諾夫, 我們很少遇到一位音樂家和一位作曲家如此密切的關聯, 強烈與充滿了活力. 在年僅15歲時, 范特捷受阿胥肯納吉和捷克愛樂的邀請表演拉赫曼尼諾夫的第一號鋼琴協奏曲, 從此他在許多音樂會與國際比賽中獲得國際讚譽. 僅僅一年之後, 他在美國和卡內基音樂廳等地巡迴演出. 29歲時, 他在布魯塞爾的伊莉莎白皇后音樂大賽中(2016), 在瑪琳.艾索普(Marin Alsop)指揮下演奏拉赫曼尼諾夫第三號鋼琴協奏曲而贏得第一名. 他第一次聽就愛上了拉赫曼尼諾夫, 從此就成為他的招牌作曲家:＂除了提供自己展示技術的機會, 他的音樂以對比和巨大的動態範圍讓人印象深刻... 對熱衷於音色的人還能期望甚麼? 這就是純粹的美妙!＂. 范特捷被世界上大多數著名的管弦樂團和指揮家邀請演奏拉赫曼尼諾夫鋼琴協奏曲. 這張專輯是在新冠疫情之後的幾個甜美成果之一, 因此他才能排除塞滿滿的每日行程, 讓他有平靜的時間來錄音. 此片的簡介小冊子中有范特捷的專訪, 描述對拉赫曼尼諾夫豐富的經驗與他非常密切的關係. 然而最有利的告白是此錄音專輯, 與湯馬斯.布勞納指揮超級的布拉格交響樂團合作, 專注的演奏表現出每一個細節, 充滿著情感, 音色和對比. 這的確是純粹的美妙! 拉赫曼尼諾夫藉由范特捷的手, 真是一場音樂盛宴.

Lukas Vondracek and Sergei Rachmaninoff. Scarcely do we encounter a connection between a musician and a composer so close, strong and energising. When, at the age of 15, Vondracek was invited by Vladimir Ashkenazy and the Czech Philharmonic to perform Rachmaninoff’s Concerto No. 1, he had garnered international acclaim at numerous concerts and competitions. Just a year later, the pianist toured the USA and appeared at Carnegie Hall. At the age of 29, he triumphed at the Queen Elisabeth Competition in Brussels (2016), performing Rachmaninoff’s Concerto No. 3, conducted by Marin Alsop. Love at first listen, Rachmaninoff has become his flagship composer: “Besides affording the opportunity to showcase one’s technique, his music impresses by being contrastive and having an immense dynamic range … What more could a person keen on tone colour wish? It’s sheer beauty!” Lukas Vondracek has been invited to perform Rachmaninoff’s concertos by the most prominent orchestras and conductors worldwide. The present album is one of the few sweet fruits of the Covid pandemic, which cleared the soloist’s otherwise jam-packed diary and afforded him peaceful time for recording. The booklet contains an interview with Lukas Vondracek, within which he provides an account of his ample experience of and great affinity to Rachmaninoff. Yet the most powerful confession is the recording itself, made with the superb Prague Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Tomas Brauner, capturing performances rendering every detail, teeming with emotion, colour and contrast. Sheer beauty indeed! Rachmaninoff in Lukas Vondracek’s hands. A lavish musical feast.
