Info for Chopin: Piano Concerto No. 1; Ballades (Deluxe)



Pianist Seong-Jin Cho performs compositional works by Chopin along with the London Symphony Orchestra led by Gianandrea Noseda.

In 2015, aged just 21, Seong-Jin Cho won First Prize at the 17th International Chopin Piano Competition, one of the most prestigious titles in all classical music. Now, in his first studio recording, Cho combines Chopin's immensely popular Piano Concerto No. 1 with his almost equally beloved Ballades, revealing that he not only has brilliant fingers but is a master of characterization too.

"Cho is impressive" - Gramomphone

"Nothing is done just for show; it's all about the music" - The Guardian

"Unequivocally brilliant" - The Telegraph

"Everything is poetic, introspective, graceful" - Financial Times
