Piano Concerto no. 1 in C, op. 15 / Piano Concerto no. 2 in B flat, op. 19

Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Emil Gilels

Piano Concerto No. 1 in C major, Op. 15, and Piano Concerto No. 2 in B-flat major, Op. 19, are piano concertos by Ludwig van Beethoven, published in 1801. Rooted in the Classical-era concerto tradition, these works combine lyrical piano writing with active orchestral dialogue and formal clarity while also foreshadowing Beethoven's evolving harmonic boldness and increased dramatic contrasts that would characterise his middle-period output.
First released: 1996
