Piano Concertos 3 & 4

Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Chicago Symphony Orchestra & Sir Georg Solti & Vladimir Ashkenazy

Piano Concertos Nos. 3 and 4 are piano concertos by Ludwig van Beethoven, composed in 1800 and 1806 respectively. They occupy a transitional place between the Classical and early Romantic periods, combining virtuosic piano writing with symphonic orchestral textures and illustrating Beethoven's move toward expanded structures and greater expressive range in his concerto output.
