Joseph Marx: Romantic Piano Concerto/Castelli Romani

Joseph Marx was an excellent pianist: the hugely demanding solo part of his 'Romantic Piano Concerto', a symphonic duet between piano and orchestra, marks him as a true virtuoso who had also absorbed the heady impressionism of Debussy, Scriabin and Delius. While having no connection with film music, Marx left a multitude of intoxicating melodies that eclipsed the wildest of Hollywood's dreams. His second piano concerto 'Castelli Romani' was inspired by ancient ruins in the wooded hills outside Rome, and is a magical, pyrotechnic display of Mediterranean emotions and masterfully orchestrated atmospheric pictures.
