Revisiting the very repertoire featured on his concerto recording debut from the seventies, Emanuel Ax makes his first foray into the world of interval devices, taking part in a mid-1800s Erard. Whereas its sound just isn’t as huge as that of a contemporary live performance grand, the treble and bass registers have higher timbral differentiation. Ax responds to the instrument like a child with a brand new toy. The concerto’s outer actions are lighter in texture and extra pressing in expression than the 2 shorter concerted works, which sing and dance with simply the suitable mix of pomp and brio. Abetted by his excellent, responsive band, Charles Mackerras clarifies instrumental element in a approach that belies Chopin’s maligned status as an orchestrator. –Jed Distler
