Work: Symphony no. 98 in B flat major

The soloists turn out to be the perfect couple, while the camerawork covers the action like it was a soccer match.

With his Piano Concerto No. 4 in G, the centerpiece in the concert with the London Symphony Orchestra on Sunday, Beethoven took the classical concerto format he had inherited into uncharted waters. The work opens with a series of piano chords, which the orchestra takes up, develops and kneads into riveting thematic material before the soloist returns.
