Seymour Lipkin, piano
Piotr Gajewski, conductor
This all-Beethoven program begins with the powerful Coriolan Overture, written to accompany Viennese playwright HeinrichnJoseph von Collin’s tragedy Coriolan. The enormously difficult Piano Concerto No. 4 is performed by the great pianist Seymour Lipkin, currently on the faculties of both the Juilliard School and the Curtis Institute of Music. Wagner described Beethoven’s celebratory Symphony No. 7 as “all tumult, all yearning and storming of the heart ….”
