More Details on Beethoven - Piano Concertos Nos 1 & 5
This is the first volume of a cycle of Beethoven’s piano concertos performed by François-Frédéric Guy, the Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France and Philippe Jordan.
François-Frédéric Guy is now firmly established as a pianist of immense interpretative authority and superlative technique. He is especially admired for his performance of music from the Austro-German tradition. With his exceptional command of keyboard sonority, he has a special gift for music of the grandest scale, such as the major works of Brahms, Liszt and Beethoven. His recording of Beethoven’s “Hammerklavier” sonata for Naïve was picked as BBC Radio 3’s “Building a Library” choice.
Philippe Jordan is one of the rising stars of the conductor’s world.
