Search - Maria João Pires, Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra, Daniel Harding :: Beethoven: Piano Concertos Nos.3 & 4

On her debut release for Onyx, the great pianist Maria Joao Pires performs two Beethoven concertos she has played often, but never before recorded. After giving concerts in Stockholm last October, she went directly into the studio with Daniel Harding and the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra, and this remarkable recording is the result. These are performances of such passion, poetry and drama - Beethoven as he should sound, just as if you are hearing these great concertos for the first time. In the booklet, Pires has provided a personal note on her approach to these works.
