The concert began with Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 1, in which the 40-year-old Anderszewski proved an inspired soloist. It was a subtle, remarkably detailed performance of an endlessly inventive and high-energy concerto. Petrenko and Anderszewski, who is of Polish-Hungarian parentage, caught the piece's rushing ebb and flow, its rhythmic delicacy and snap, with breathtaking command. The rambunctious country dance finale sparkled. If this is what Anderszewski - once a student at USC's Thornton School and, later, of Murray Perahia's - can do in the morning, one wonders what his next evening and afternoon performances will be like. |
