Highlights of the Romantic piano: Richard Addinsell’s Warsaw Concerto was one of the first hits in cinema history. As the moving tale of a Polish pianist in the Second World War reaches its culmination, we hear the concerto, to which the composer was inspired by the dazzlingly virtuosic and deeply passionate piano concertos written by his great predecessors of the late Romantic era.
