Beethoven. Piano Concertos 3 & 4. Pires/swedish Ra

Maria João Pires (piano), Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra, Daniel Harding

Beethoven: Piano Concertos Nos.3 & 4

On her début release for Onyx, the great pianist Maria João Pires performs two Beethoven concertos she has played often, but never before recorded. After giving concerts in Stockholm last October, she went directly into the studio with Daniel Harding and the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra, and this remarkable recording is the result. These are performances of such passion, poetry and drama - Beethoven as he should sound, just as if you are hearing these great concertos for the first time. In the booklet, Pires has provided a personal note on her approach to these works.
