This release is the 60th in an ongoing series, with no end in sight,
devoted to the Romantic piano concerto. Hyperion has uncovered lots of
music that can shake up the repertory of the same dozen concertos that
get played and recorded repeatedly, and this outing contains music
that's at least diverting and often more. Théodore Dubois was an
established composer of his time, and thus was discarded when modernist
orthodoxy required narratives of progress. But he was far from merely
academic. The three works here span 40 years, and each treats inherited
forms with an attractive freedom. The opening Concerto capriccioso in C
minor of 1876 is the most conservative of the group, but its wandering
slow introduction is languidly pleasant. The Piano Concerto No. 2 in F
minor, from 1897, is in the Saint-Saëns orbit, but its four-movement
form, with a fantasia rather than a triumphal flourish for its finale,
is novel. Still more interesting is the Suite for piano and string
orchestra, written in 1917 when Dubois was 80. It is quite a modern
work, not harmonically but formally, breaking up the opposition between
piano and orchestra in a series of small lyrical moments that bring to
mind Milhaud or Poulenc. Would that every composer were so open to new
influences at that age! French pianist Cédric Tiberghien gets the
virtuosity level right (high, but never showy), and conductor Andrew
Manze, stepping out of his Baroque field of specialty, gets properly
clean, restrained results from the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra. A
fine offbeat find for lovers of French music, although except in the
final work Dubois is more Germanic than French. James Manheim
