Benjamin Grosvenor with the Doric Quartet

Dvořák wrestled for years with his Piano Quintet after attempting to revise it from an earlier work. It’ll make a revealing companion piece to Chopin’s Second Piano Concerto – performed here in a delightful 19th-century chamber version for piano and a quintet of string players.

Chopin was still in his teens when he wrote it, but he seems to have been in love. Certainly, this chamber version gives it a unique intimacy – and places the chamber music-loving Grosvenor first amongst equals. This young British pianist understands that small ensembles can generate big emotions – and these six artists, together, have a way of making even familiar music sound freshly minted.
