About

Lang Lang revisits two stellar exponents of Russia’s Romantic musical soul, Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninov, to reveal another side of his prodigious talent—his finesse as a collegial interpreter of chamber music.

Making the big news of Lang Lang‘s first ever chamber music recording bigger, joining him on the violin and cello are two giants of their instruments: Vadim Repin and Mischa Maisky. Lang Lang could not be in better company to reveal the inexhaustible inventiveness of Tchaikovsky’s Piano Trio No. 50 in A minor or the tender consolations of Rachmaninov’s Trio élégiaque in G-minor, a short early masterpiece composed before Rachmaninov was twenty.

...all three play with such confidence, verve and – wait for it – deference, that they bounce off and meld with each other perfectly in a performance that brings out all the tension, tenderness and exuberance of these two works...The concrete fact proved by this disc is that Lang Lang can not only do chamber music, but do it phenomenally well.

November 2009

…Maisky…what impresses most of all about these performances is their single mindedness. Nowhere is there even a suggestion of conflicting temperaments with their own agenda. What shines through here is the give and take, the kinship, of outstanding chamber music playing. Repin is quoted as saying that Lang Lang's playing shines as though full of light - and that's the overriding spirit here, even in darkness.
