Concertos for Piano Nos. 3, 4
Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Berliner Philharmoniker & Ferdinand Leitner & Wilhelm Kempff
Piano Concertos Nos. 3 and 4 are concertos by Ludwig van Beethoven, composed between 1800 and 1806. They blend Classical-era concerto forms with the emerging Romantic idiom, expanding the piano’s role as an equal partner to the orchestra through broader orchestral colour, increased dramatic contrast and adventurous harmonic progressions, and they occupy a pivotal place in Beethoven’s transition from his early to middle compositional period.
