Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra - Paul Lewis
Beethoven Piano Concerto No. 4 in G major, Op. 58
Beethoven Symphony No. 4 in B flat major, Op. 60
Piano: Paul Lewis
Conductor: Marios Papadopoulos
Britain’s Beethoven pianist par-excellence, Paul Lewis, joins the orchestra and Music Director Marios Papadopoulos in the perfect surroundings of the Sheldonian Theatre for the piano concerto in which Beethoven presented himself as the bringer of peace to a world of fermenting strife. Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 4 is treasured not for its revolutionary heroism but for its poise and humanity. The same might be said of the composer’s Symphony No. 4, a work more guarded and contained than its more famous neighbours in which Beethoven apparently escaped into a world of pure, natural beauty.
