In a unique collaboration, Kirill Gerstein teams up with his mentor and inspiration, the great Hungarian pianist Ferenc Rados, for an album of four-hand duets by Mozart. An icon for generations of musicians but one who has mostly avoided making recordings, this fascinating disc reveals Rados’s distinctively characterful art at its captivating best and finds both partners in a stimulating musical conversation. The booklet of the album contains an interview with Kirill Gerstein and music historian Joseph Horowitz as well as a personal and very humorous introduction to the fascinating world of Ferenc Rados by the British cellist Steven Isserlis.
