Our Take

Boy oh boy, do I have a treat for you today, dear readers! CHINKE! ORQUESTRA, conducted by the maestro Roderick Cox, teams up with pianist Gerard Aimontche to tackle two towering works of the classical canon: Rachmaninov's Piano Concerto No.3 and Sibelius' Symphony No.2.

Let's start with Aimontche's performance on Rachmaninov's notoriously difficult concerto. This guy doesn't just play the keys, he dances with them. The precision and emotion he brings to this piece is mesmerising, leaving me wondering if he has made a pact with the piano gods. Cox and the orchestra provide a rich and dynamic backdrop, perfectly complementing Aimontche's virtuosic playing.

And then there's Sibelius' Symphony No.2, a work that demands both power and subtlety. Cox navigates this symphony with finesse, guiding the orchestra through its shifting moods and textures. The players respond in kind, delivering a performance that is both technically impressive and emotionally stirring.

Overall, CHINKE! ORQUESTRA, Cox, and Aimontche have crafted an album that is a true feast for the ears. Whether you're a classical music aficionado or just looking for something new and exciting, this album is sure to satisfy. So grab your favourite beverage, sit back, and let the music sweep you away on a sonic journey like no other. Trust me, you won't regret it.
