Awards and reviews

June 2023

Characterful, sensitive and technically dazzling , he’s in his element in these electrifying works – and the Brussels Phil provides lush accompaniment.

June 2023

Throughout this superb disc, Giltburg is a joy to hear, lightly pedalled, consistently on the qui vive, weaving and darting, with a delicious leggiero touch and crystal-clear articulation...these are among the finest accounts of these works alongside Wild, Shelley, Hough and of course the composer himself.

May 2023

In the first movement of the First Concerto he provides the requisite boldness and grandeur as well as much warm lyricism and light filigree. His Fazioli piano is always in ideal balance with the orchestra…The recorded sound is warm and clear throughout.

13th April 2023

As in the previous instalments of this cycle, the performances are immaculate. Giltburg has a fiercely impressive technique, which allows him to glitter and dash his way spectacularly through the First Concerto.
