"Offering "prodigious technique, wondrous colorings, delicate passagework and steely power" and yet "elegantly restrained" (NY Times), Yundi is a pianist whose ascent to international stardom has shown particular dedication to the works of Chopin. Here he leads from the piano in a commanding coupling of the composer's two powerhouse concertos."--Container.
