JPO | Tchaikovsky | Piano Concerto no. 1 | Soloist: Ben Schoeman | Cond. Michael Hankinson

This week, we present an audio recording of Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No 1. The performance by the JPO took place at the Linder Auditorium in October 2003, under the baton of Michael Hankinson.
The Piano Concerto No 1 is one of the most popular of Tchaikovsky's compositions and among the best known of all piano concertos. The composition was revised three times before the final version was reached, which is the version usually played today. This concerto became the first piece of classical music to sell a million records!
