Info for Beethoven: Piano Concertos Nos. 4 & 5

Although Beethoven is often regarded as the revolutionary composer par excellence, Reed Tetzloff sets out here to highlight his above all 'evolutionary' musical approach. The first volume of a complete set of Beethoven concertos, this recording brings together the last two achievements of the master's concerto work for piano that would soon revolutionise the genre, such as the Third Symphony and the Razumovsky Quartets. Reed Tetzloff, alongside the Prague Philharmonic Orchestra under the baton of Pawel Kapula, offers a perfect image of these two works – the introspective Fourth Concerto and the epic Fifth, like the two sides of the Romantic hero struggling against the world, taking the drama to a hitherto unequalled level.
