Live, Video: Kritiken zu klassischen Konzerten, Opern, Ballett und Tanz finden | Concerto in C major for piano, orchestra and male choir, Op.39, BV 247

Ferruccio Busonis Klavierkonzert gehört zu den anspruchsvollsten der Konzertliteratur. In Leipzig geben Igor Levit und Sir Antonio Pappano das lange selten gespielte Werk zum Besten. 

This titanic performance of Busoni’s 70-minute concerto was riveting, but exhausting to hear. It was preceded by a sparkling reading of Haydn’s “Military” Symphony.

Sakari Oramo returned to Symphony Hall to lead Sibelius' Symphony no. 3 in C major and Busoni’s rarely performed, grandiose Concerto in C for Piano, Orchestra and Men’s Chorus with Kirill Gerstein.
