Digital Booklet

"Shelley handles the often intricate solo parts of these concertos with characteristic aplomb and stylishness. The theme and variations of the Andantino of the Op 3 Concerto in E flat, the military inflections of the Op 14 Concerto in F and the ‘Turkish’ Rondo of the G minor Concerto are particularly appealing. Dussek wrote little orchestral music beyond his concertos but the sympathetic collaboration of the Ulster Orchestra showcases the increasing subtlety and sophistication of his handling of the orchestra … a welcome addition to the library of anyone interested in the fertile territory of late 18th- and early 19th-century piano music."
- Gramophone
Howard Shelley’s earlier release of Dussek concertos was described as ‘a real find’ (BBC Music Magazine). This successor is, if anything, even more impressive, culminating in one of the finest unknown piano concertos from the early nineteenth century.
