There’s a star system in classical music where music companies pour their marketing budgets into boosting selected “name” artists. However, there are plenty of fine musicians laboring in obscurity without the financial clout to reach the top tier. Imogen Cooper is one of those artists. These wonderful piano concertos come to life with her inspired performances. The Northern Sinfonia is bit dull, but that doesn’t detract from Imogen Cooper’s lively playing. If you love this music, do yourself a favor and seek out Imogen Cooper’s marvelous CDs. You won’t be disappointed. GRADE: A
