Description
In Beethoven’s oeuvre, the Fifth Piano Concerto holds a special place: as his final piano concerto, it elevates the solo part to an almost symphonic dimension.
Beethoven's Fifth Concerto occupies a special place in his oeuvre: his final piano concerto, it pushes the solo part to an almost symphonic dimension. Anton Gerzenberg finds it the ideal vehicle for combining power, precision and a sense of melody. Mendelssohn's Third Symphony, known as the ‘Scottish’, transforms a travel memory into musical drama. A romantic diptych in the strongest sense, it encompasses energy, memory and projection
