By Griffiths, Kolly, and Slowak Radio Symphony Orchestra. By Alexander Glazunov. Classical. 1 listening CD. Published by Christophorus (NX.CHE02012).

In spite of a life's work which includes 108 opus numbers, Alexander Glazunov (1865-1936) remains undeservedly quite neglected in today's concert halls, aside maybe the Violin Concerto (1904), which was good enough to earn a recording by Jascha Heifetz, among others. His two piano concertos, both composed during the 1910s, remain fully Russian works of the internationalist, late-19th c. Romantic, virtuoso school. Pianist Karl-Andreas Kolly is accompanied by conductor Howard Griffiths leading the Slovak Radio Symphony on these 1998 recordings, now newly reissued.
