Leif Ove Andsnes's new album on EMI Classics features performances of some of his favourite contemporary repertoire including world premiere recordings of two 21st century compositions written for him: Bent Sørensen's The Shadows of Silence for solo piano, and the Piano Concerto by Marc-Andre Dalbavie. In this podcast he discusses the second of these commissions with the composer, Marc-Andre Dalbavie, and introduces the rest of the repertoire on the disc.
