Tchaikovsky's Piano Concerto No. 1 – "Classic of the Classics"

Just like Gustavo Dudamel, Rafael Payare grew up in the Venezuelan music organisation "El Sistema". He was promoted and engaged by Claudio Abbado, Simon Rattle and Daniel Barenboim, and in the meantime he has arrived on the big stages and in the big repertoire. Strauss' "Heldenleben" is one of his favourite works, and he has conducted it many times. With Tchaikovsky's Piano Concerto No. 1, he has another repertoire hit in his luggage – and with the pianist Kirill Gerstein at his side, a soloist who also knows how to discover the nuances in it.
