Piano Concerto No. 3 in C minor, Op 37

Available for over a year

Beethoven was the pianist for the first performance of his 3rd Piano Concerto but not having time to write it out properly he had to play most of it from memory. This concerto really shows off the versatility and expressiveness of the piano. Listen for the soothing solo in the second movement. Composer: Ludwig van Beethoven Performers: BBC Symphony Orchestra Performer: Igor Levit (Piano) Conductor: Jiří Bělohlávek Recording date: 14 November 2011
