Beethoven - Piano Concerto No. 3, Op. 37

Over Beethoven - Piano Concerto No. 3, Op. 37

In time for his 65th birthday in 2007, pianist Daniel Barenboim rounded off a cycle of Ludwig van Beethoven piano concertos. Recorded live at the Klavier-Festival Ruhr in May 2007, this recording reflects both a very individual and unusual reading of Beethoven's music and Barenboim's life-long dedication to the composer. Beethoven's masterpieces have been a key part of Barenboim's repertoire throughout his career. Simultaneously conducting and playing the piano, Barenboim leads the Staatskapelle Berlin in a performance of Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 3 in C minor, Op. 37. Like two other major works of the composer - Symphony No. 5 and Piano Sonata No. 8 "Pathétique" -, this piano concerto is written in the key of C minor, which contributes to the work's stormy character.
