Luisi, Levit / Beethoven, Berlioz by Beethoven, Berlioz, Ó (2011/2011), Seoltóir Fabio Luisi, Gasteig, Munich, Germany

Change in cast: We thank Igor Levit, that he has agreed to take on the soloist's part at short notice in place of the originally announced and unfortunately diseased Radu Lupu. "He simply has everything that one could wish for: the technique and above all a dream of a pianistic touch. It really is unbelievable for a pianist of his age.” This excerpt from a review describes Igor Levit's pianistic skills. He will be performing Beethoven’s Fifth Piano Concerto at this evenings performance at Gasteig Munich. It is this concerto that definitively left the strict forms of the Viennese Classic behind and opened wide the door to brand new forms of musical expression
