Brahms Piano Concerto No.1 in D. Minor

Attended a wonderful performance on last friday. To my overly amateurish tastes, it sounded a little edgy rawer than what I had come to expect from a Brahms piece. Looking forward to check out the Arthur Rubinstein interpretation.

He was a member of the group of composers called The Five (or "The Mighty Handful"), who were dedicated to producing a specifically Russian kind of art music[1] [2] [3]. He is best known for his symphonies, his opera Prince Igor, and for later providing the musical inspiration for the musical Kismet.

To Get: Alexander Borodin's Symphony No. 3
Borodin was part of The Five: The Five or The Mighty Five was the loose collection of five Russian composers in St Petersburg, who met during 1856-1862, including: Mily Balakirev (the leader), Alexander Borodin, César Cui, Modest Mussorgsky, and Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov.
