“Heidelberger Frühling”: Münchner Philharmoniker on Tour

In Heidelberg, the C-Major piano concerto by Prokofiev, which often seems so cold and constructivist, appeared as organic and subtle as it rarely does… The soloist, Anika Vavic, blended in perfectly: Anika Vavic is not super-prominent yet, and is not a piano witch like Martha Argerich used to be in this piece – but she manages the remarkable: proving that playing non-legato can be very poetic indeed.
