Triplo Concerto per violino, violoncello, pianoforte e orchestra in Do maggiore Op. 56 / Sonata per pianoforte No. 17 in Re minore Op. 31 No. 2 "La tempesta"

This release comprises two works by Ludwig van Beethoven: a triple-instrument concerto composed around 1803 and a piano sonata composed around 1802. Musically, the pairing contrasts a concertante, orchestral work that foregrounds interplay between three solo instruments and the full ensemble with a stormy, dramatic piano sonata that reflects Beethoven's expansion of Classical forms toward greater emotional range and experimentation during his middle-period output.
