On his upcoming album, pianist Rafał Blechacz lays his focus on the expressive power of C minor. Together with the Dresdner Philharmonie under Kent Nagano, he presents Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 24 in C Minor, K. 491 and Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 3 in C Minor, Op. 37 – two landmark works that reveal the dramatic, introspective and visionary possibilities of the piano concerto.

The programme is completed by Beethoven’s 32 Variations in C Minor, WoO 80, placing Blechacz both in dialogue with the orchestra and alone at the keyboard. Bringing together major concerto repertoire and solo Beethoven, the album offers a focused musical narrative that connects Mozart and Beethoven through one of classical music’s most expressive tonalities.
