Info for Beethoven: Orchestral Works

Three rarely recorded works from three different creative phases of Ludwig van Beethoven are featured on this album: The Piano Concerto in D major, Op. 61a, followed by the 'Ballet of Knights' and the 'Battle Symphony'. The young pianist Claire Huangci strikes a wonderful balance of tempi and phrasing. Together with the Brandenburgisches Staatsorchester Frankfurt (Oder) under the direction of Howard Griffiths, an incredibly fresh and energetic performance of these three extraordinary works by Beethoven is achieved.
