Beethoven’s Ninth: Piano Concerto No. 5 in E-flat Major, op. 73 ("Emperor Concerto") Beethoven

Public

Piano Concerto No. 5 in E-flat Major Op. 73

9th Symphony

Approved

Acclaimed conductor Holly Mathieson leads the Philharmonia in this all-Beethoven programme.

Beethoven’s “Choral” Symphony is one of the composer’s best-loved works. A feat of Western classical music, the symphony – including the beloved Ode to Joy chorus – remains one of the most important works in the canon.

We open with Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 5. With its grandiose opening, lyrical second movement and playful finale, it is in the hands of the “mercurially brilliant” (The Strad) soloist Tom Poster.
