Beethoven 250: Emperor Concerto
Jonathan Biss interprets Beethoven’s fifth piano concerto, The Emperor Concerto. In parallel with studying Beethoven’s five piano concertos, Biss has commissioned and premièred as many new pieces by contemporary composers, pieces that in various ways relate to Beethoven’s concertos. Here, Biss plays Brett Dean’s Gneixendorf Music – A Winter’s Journey, an intriguing musical portrait of the celebrated composer.
This production is part of one or more concert series.
UPBEAT: Thursday, February 13 at 18.00 with Eric Schüldt, who tells about the second of the three concerts he has chosen for his own concert series, about the encounter with the unknown that occurs in the concert hall – and about Beethoven.
UPBEAT: Saturday at 14:00 Jonas Lundblad gives an introduction to the concert programme.
