Mendelssohn's Concertos for Pub Piano and Orchestra
Whilst these are excellent performances, they are also a perfect example of why "original instruments " can be both a blessing and a curse. There were numerous points through this disc when the sheer absurdity of the sound coming from the meticulously reconstructed Pleyel style fortepiano made me want to burst out laughing. Had Mendelssohn been confronted with a modern grand piano, he would probably have fainted with delight at its accuracy of tone and its ability to retain its tuning: why we should have gone to the enormous trouble of recreating an instrument which sounds like a pub piano is beyond me. It is possible to have works played on an original instrument or reproduction which has character and distinction: Sophie-Mayuko Vetter's harp-like fortepiano in Beethoven's 1784 Piano Concerto in E flat, or Stephen Hough playing the admittedly later 1856 Erard grand in Mendelssohn's 1st piano concerto, are both cases in point. That Ronald Brautigam is still able to give such nuanced and convincing performances on such an unpromising instrument is a near-miracle. Conversely- and it will seem a little perverse to say so I suppose (but nonetheless true), the playing, on original/historically accurate instruments, of the Kolner Akademie under Michael Alexander Willens, provides a beautiful rounded and warm sound. There are no hard metallic edges here: unlike the fragile and tinny keyboard tone, natural strings really do seem to produce a mellow tone. The whole ensemble has a melded, organic, and surprisingly beefy quality. Quite delightful. Hence my five stars, largely down to performance and recording. But please leave the old joanna in the saloon bar, thank you.

ピアノ協奏曲2番が大変素晴らしいです。
星4.6です。ブラウディハムは、モ一ッアルトのピアノ協奏曲が有名です、フォルテ、ピアノで演奏される協奏曲も良いものです。空気感臨場感、立体感が大変素晴らしい音質と演奏内容です・マルチチャンネルの音質が大変素晴らしい音質と内容と感じました。ピアノ協奏曲の2番が大変素晴らしいと感じました。

続・モーツァルト
同じく彼とケルン・アカデミーの演奏したモーツァルトのピアノ協奏曲全集を持っているのですが、続けて聞くと「モーツァルトver.2.0」のように感じる部分があり、メンデルスゾーンは紛れもなくドイツ・オーストリアの系譜に連なる作曲家だったのだというのがよくわかりました。モーツァルトのピアノ協奏曲がイイと思う人は、たぶんこちらもオススメです。フォルテ・ピアノと古楽器オケの響きが素敵です。快活さがよく出ています。従来のモダン楽器による演奏は厳粛さのようなものが強くでやすいと思います。良い意味で形式主義的な響きを期待される方には向かないかも知れません。彼らの演奏にはのびのびとしたモーツァルト的な明るさがあります。

Mendelssohn Piano Music
This is a wonderful resume of all Mendelssons works for piano and orchestra. Brautigam has a wonderful feel for this reconstruction of a piano Mendlssohn would use at the time. The use of gut strings by the Orchestra gives added warmth. This replaces a recorded I have from 1993 by Howard Shelley. Well worth buying with over 74 minutes of music.
