Beethoven Piano Concerto No. 1

About this event

In Beethoven’s first piano concerto, we begin to hear the composer step away from imitation and into his own true voice; Orli Shaham performs this daring concerto. Schumann’s “Rhenish” symphony was inspired by a happy vacation along Germany’s Rhine river, and its music glitters with sunlight. Guest conductor Kristiina Poska — “an iron baton in a velvet hand” (Diapason) — opens this program with music from fellow Estonian Ülo Krigul, who notes that his Proteus Pulse “derives its flows and pulsations from an old Greek God of Waters." How you’ll feel: completely in awe; moved as if by water
