Beethoven's 'Eroica' Symphony, from Gateshead
Dinis Sousa conducts the Royal Northern Sinfonia in Beethoven鈥檚 groundbreaking Symphony No 3 鈥楨roica鈥; Isata Kanneh-Mason joins them as soloist in Clara Schumann鈥檚 Piano Concerto.
Dinis Sousa conducts the Royal Northern Sinfonia in Beethoven鈥檚 groundbreaking Symphony No 3 鈥楨roica鈥 (1803-4) 鈥 one of the greatest turning-points in the history of music. Several decades later, Robert Schumann was working on sketches for an opera based on Shakespeare's Hamlet. He abandoned the project but used the sketches to compose two movements of a symphony in G minor, the first of which was performed by the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra in 1832. Just three years later, the same orchestra (conducted by Mendelssohn), gave the premiere of a piano concerto by Robert鈥檚 wife, Clara Schumann, who was also the solo pianist in that first performance.
