Budapest Festival Orchestra, Iván Fischer & Kirill Gerstein

It seems logical that the Hungarian dances are tailor-made for the Budapest Festival Orchestra and Iván Fischer. But it doesn't stop there when it comes to Brahms: time and again the world-famous conductor and his orchestra return to Brahms - this time for an entire Brahms cycle. The match with pianist Kirill Gerstein was quickly made. For him too, Brahms' First is not just any piano concerto: it was once this piano concerto with which he made his debut as a star soloist.
