I only know about the first piano concerto from the bad reviews, but I have the older release of the Postnikova 2nd p concerto and it's a clanker -- pounded out, plodding and awful, aside from also being the Siloti edition without the string solos. However, considering the price of this cd, just throw out the Postnikova cd as it's far from necessary. This is probably the only place you can find Chung's violin concerto with Dutoit and the Montreal symphony orchestra, but you can get her debut recording with Previn which includes the Mendelssohn violin concerto with Dutoit that was originally paired with it on the 2 disc set below as well as the Beethoven and Sibelius violin concertos.
