Contemporary music often has a hard time. Poland's Górecki's Third Symphony also initially failed with the critics. Until excerpts from it became pop hits in the USA and landed in the charts. Yet its subject matter is quite serious: Górecki wrote the music and vocal texts in reference to the Second World War and in particular the suffering in the concentration camps. The piano concerto, which helped the Dane Edvard Grieg achieve his international breakthrough, exudes a completely opposite mood. In it, the young composer had found the colors of his homeland. The freshness and special light of the north can be heard right from the first movement. A showpiece for Boris Giltburg, who can make all these colors shine."

English

Zeitgenössische Musik hat es oft schwer. Auch die Dritte Sinfonie des Polen Górecki fiel zunächst bei der Kritik durch. Bis Ausschnitte aus ihr in den USA zu Pophits wurden und in den Charts landeten. Dabei ist ihr Thema durchaus ernst: Górecki schrieb die Musik und die Gesangstexte darin in Bezug auf den Zweiten Weltkrieg und besonders auf das Leid in den Konzentrationslagern. Eine ganz gegenteilige Stimmung verströmt das Klavierkonzert, das dem Dänen Edvard Grieg zum internationalen Durchbruch verhalf. Darin hatte der junge Komponist die Farben seines Heimatlandes gefunden. Schon im ersten Satz hört man förmlich die Frische und das besondere Licht des Nordens. Ein Paradestück für Boris Giltburg, der all diese Farben zum Leuchten bringen kann."
