Pianist Evgeny Kissin displays the Romantic side of his remarkable gifts in the melodious, much-loved concerto by Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg. Sir Andrew Davis conducts two lush scores by Richard Strauss: the dashing adventures of Don Juan, the Spanish heartbreaker, and the lilting suite from Der Rosenkavalier, Strauss's most popular opera.
