Piano Concerto no. 1 / Violin Concerto

Album by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky & Emil Gilels & David Fiodorovich Oistrakh & Zubin Mehta & Eugene Ormandy

Piano Concerto No. 1 / Violin Concerto is a recorded album presenting two orchestral concertos by Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, with the piano concerto completed in 1875 and the violin concerto completed in 1878. Both works exemplify Tchaikovsky's late-Romantic style, combining expansive, lyrical melodies and dramatic climaxes with virtuosic solo writing set against rich orchestral textures, and they occupy central positions in the concerto repertoire and in the composer's output of the 1870s.
