Lang Lang and the Gewandhaus Orchestra: Pure Beethoven

The spectacular season finale of the new concert series at the Beethovenhalle, featuring Lang Lang on piano and Andris Nelsons conducting, presents two of the great master's most famous works: the heroic Fifth Piano Concerto and the Sixth Symphony, known as the 'Pastoral', the manuscript of which is held at the Beethoven-Haus. In 120 minutes of concert music, the full genius of Beethoven's art is on display: the magnificent symphonist who raised programme music to new heights with thunder, lightning and pastoral idylls, and the musician-philosopher who transformed his own real-life experiences of war and revolution into a timeless soundscape, thereby creating one of the most outstanding solo concertos for pianists.
