Louis Lortie and H茅l猫ne Mercier play Rachmaninov and Stravinsky
The French-Canadian piano duo of Louis Lortie and H茅l猫ne Mercier play an all-Russian programme including Rachmaninov Suite No 1 and Symphonic Dances, and Stravinsky's Petrushka.
The French-Canadian piano duo of Louis Lortie and H茅l猫ne Mercier have forged a formidable reputation since they established their partnership in the 1980s. Their concert, recorded on Sunday at Wigmore Hall, features a dazzling, all-Russian programme which combines an extraordinary range of sonorities and textures with the profound nostalgia and affection Rachmaninov and Stravinsky felt for their homeland.
Presented by Ian Skelly.
