The Berliner Philharmoniker support UNICEF’s Haiti emergency assistance – a round table discussion Beethoven’ Piano Concerto No. 4 with Mitsuko Uchida and Simon Rattle
Ludwig van Beethoven shows an unusual side of himself in his Fourth Piano Concerto: not bombastic or heroic, but pensive, sensitive, and delicate. The press reported on how Mitsuko Uchida impressively conveys this emotional world, “effortlessly, as if dreamed into the keyboard”. Simon Rattle also conducts Jean Sibelius’s Second Symphony which owes its popularity mainly to its rapturous finale.
