Reviews & Interviews:
Bachtrack (Review): By David Wolfson
Dudamel leads New York Philharmonic in spectacular new piano concerto.
"..This is an absolutely outstanding composition, undoubtedly the most engaging and satisfying new piano concerto I have heard from a living composer.." bachtrack.com/...
Los Angeles Times (Review): By Mark Swed
"...The concerto is dedicated to the virtuoso Venezuelan pianist Sergio Tiempo, who played it from memory, which seemed an impossibility. A catapulting Tiempo almost never stops for 30 minutes. The Steinway is subject to all you might ever want to subject it to. Phenomenal runs. Tone clusters banged out with the elbows. Percussive playing of the strings inside the instrument. Tiempo somehow made the impossible possible...." www.latimes.co...
The New York Times (Review): By Anthony Tommasini
"..This varied program opened with Ives and included the New York premiere of a colorfully eclectic piano concerto by Esteban Benzecry..." "...The music itself was colorfully orchestrated, restless and likable..." "...The first movement is run through with an assertive four-note theme, like a somber fanfare. I heard echoes of Prokofiev and Messiaen in the piano part, full of pounding rhythms, cascading chords, spiraling swirls of fast notes, and that four-note theme, played in every contortion. The mercurial, mysterious slow movement was the strongest music, with intriguing cluster chords in the piano and shimmering, eerie orchestra sonorities. The finale is a dizzying perpetual-motion toccata. Mr. Tiempo gave a scintillating and virtuosic performance..." www.nytimes.co...

Gustavo Dudamel and Pianist Sergio Tiempo Ignite Esteban Benzecry’s Universos infinitos By Jim Farber
