Beatrice Rana & Concertgebouw Orchestra: Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 3

Beatrice Rana

The Concertgebouw Orchestra is teaming up with Beatrice Rana to perform Beethoven’s Third Piano Concerto. The Italian musician’s profound pianism was centre stage when she made solo appearances with the Concertgebouw Orchestra in 2018 (Chopin) and 2020 (Tchaikovsky). Now she’s back with the piano concerto with which Beethoven stormily heralded nineteenth-century Romanticism. Piano and orchestra are equal partners here, and it promises to be an exciting collaboration!

Paavo Järvi conducts Sibelius

The Finnish composer Jean Sibelius’s magisterial Second Symphony comes right at the end of the Romantic period. It’s an intensely personal work that touches music lovers around the world every time it’s performed – and has done for over 120 years. The Estonian conductor Paavo Järvi, who regularly conducts the orchestra, is the perfect interpreter for this magnificent, compelling music from his neighbouring country.
