In 2015, he began a fruitful collaboration with Naxos Records, releasing a series of critically praised recordings of works by Beethoven, Schumann, Liszt, Rachmaninoff, and Shostakovich. Mr. Giltburg also feels a strong need to engage audiences beyond the concert hall. His blog Classical Music for All is aimed at a non-specialist audience, and he complements it with articles in publications such as Gramophone, BBC Music Magazine, The Guardian, The Times, and Fono Forum. During the lockdown period in spring 2020, Mr. Giltburg regularly streamed live performances and masterclasses from home. To date, these streams have received more than one million views.
