The “Emperor” Concerto

Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Arthur Rubinstein & Daniel Barenboim & London Philharmonic Orchestra

The "Emperor" Concerto is Ludwig van Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 5 in E-flat major, Op. 73, composed in 1809. The work bridges Classical and early Romantic styles, characterised by expansive melodic writing, bold harmonic progressions and virtuosic piano writing integrated with a symphonic orchestral role, and it occupies a pivotal position in Beethoven's transition to his middle period for its expanded scale and dramatic scope.
