The album Mendelssohn Piano Concerto No1 In G Minor Piano Concerto No2 In D Minor by Rudolf Serkin, The Philadelphia Orchestra, Columbia Symphony Orchestra, Eugene Ormandy is a true gem for classical music enthusiasts. The album features two of Mendelssohn's most celebrated piano concertos, played with great virtuosity by Rudolf Serkin, a renowned pianist of the 20th century.

The first concerto in G minor is a masterpiece that showcases Mendelssohn's compositional skills and the pianist's technical prowess. Serkin's interpretation of the piece is sublime, delivering the complex melodies and harmonies with ease and precision. The Philadelphia Orchestra, led by Eugene Ormandy, provides a perfect accompaniment to Serkin's performance, creating a beautiful balance between the piano and the orchestra.

The second concerto in D minor is equally impressive, with Serkin's performance once again shining through. The piece is more dramatic and intense, and Serkin masterfully captures the emotional depth of the music. The Columbia Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Ormandy, provides a powerful and dynamic backdrop to the pianist's performance, creating a truly captivating listening experience.
