Kirill Gerstein plays Beethoven's Emperor Concerto
Krzysztof Urbanski conducts the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in Stravinsky's spectacular ballet The Firebird, and Kirill Gerstein joins them for Beethoven's Emperor Concerto.
Stravinsky's Scherzo a la russe makes playful start to this concert before renowned Russian-born, Berlin-based Kirill Gerstein performs one of the greatest of all piano concertos - Beethoven's 'Emperor'. The concert ends with Stravinsky's exotic and lushly-scored fairy tale ballet The Firebird, the music that launched Stravinsky's international career.
Recorded in 2018 at the Royal Festival Hall, London and presented by Ian Skelly
