Antonio Pappano leads the Orchestra dell'Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia and soloist Bertrand Chamayou in the final moments of Richard Strauss's spirited Burleske. Discover the complete recording: https://w.lnk.to/sehbLY

A young Strauss originally conceived the Burleske for the pianist Hans von Bülow, a pupil (and son-in-law) of Liszt; but von Bülow found the Burleske excessively challenging in technical terms and dismissively refused to learn it. "Von Bülow, who had small hands, said it was impossible because the hand position had to change in every bar," says Bertrand Chamayou. "It actually sometimes changes two or three times in each bar – your hands need to be as agile as a cat! Maybe this all contributes to the element of surprise. The way composers wrote for the piano in the 20th century has accustomed us to technical demands of this kind, but the Burleske is still challenging for a modern pianist."
