Beethoven Emperor Concerto

Beethoven’s Fifth Piano Concerto, his last and largest, earns its “Emperor” nickname with majestic keyboard flourishes and sumptuous orchestral surroundings. Mendelssohn’s “Italian” Symphony jubilantly relives the brilliant sunshine, mystical nights and spirited locals that greeted the young genius on his Grand Tour.
Featuring pianist Jean-Efflam Bavouzet.
