Beethoven: Complete Piano Concertos (3CD)

Krystian Zimerman offers an exceptional new interpretation of Beethoven’s Piano Concertos recorded with Sir Simon Rattle and the London Symphony Orchestra.
The 250th anniversary of Beethoven’s birth provided the pianist with the perfect reason to return to works to which he is profoundly attached. “I had not played these pieces for a few years and I miss them,” he says. “Some concertos you can play all your life and still feel hungry for them. To these concertos, Beethoven belongs.”
