As often the case with Ludwig van Beethoven (1770 – 1827), the Piano Concerto No. 4 also begins with a break with tradition: For the first time, a classical concerto does not begin with an orchestral prelude, but with solo piano, which sets the dreamy, romantic theme. The lyrical, idyllic character of this opening and its artful interplay between piano and orchestra remain dominant throughout the entire concerto. Composed between 1804 und 1806, Beethoven’s Concerto No. 4 for Piano and Orchestra gifted the piano concerto genre a new form: Symphonic form and solo concerto merge into a kind of ‘symphonic piano concerto’, in which the three contrasting, individual movements achieve an accomplished unity.
Since 1959, the Monte-Carlo Philharmonic Orchestra has been being invited to perform in the central courtyard of the Prince’s Palace in Monaco. The space is a superb setting; not solely on account of its exemplary acoustics, but also for its opulent aesthetic – in particular the fantastic utilization of its marble staircase. Das Philharmonische Orchester von Monte-Carlo besteht seit 1856, und zählt zu den prominentesten Orchestern der internationalen Musikszene. Kazuki Yamada ist seit 2016.
