Beethoven’s Emperor Concerto

If music means anything, it’s about engaging both heart and mind, and letting your imagination soar. Tonight, to launch a new season, Edward Gardner and the LPO set sail for new continents of human emotion, from a modern British masterpiece by LPO Composer-in-Residence Sir George Benjamin to the unchained melodies of Tchaikovsky’s much-loved Fifth Symphony. It’s an incredible journey, and along the way, the great Yefim Bronfman brings his unrivalled experience and insight to Beethoven’s grandest piano concerto – the one they call the ‘Emperor’.
