Beethoven: Piano Concertos Nos 4 & 5, "Emperor", Nicholas Angelich & Laurence Equilbey

Nicholas Angelich plays Beethoven’s magnificent Piano Concertos Nos 4 & 5 on a Pleyel concert grand built 65 years after the composer’s death.
Album out now:
Accompanying him is the period-instrument Insula Orchestra, conducted by its founder Laurence Equilbey. “I see this recording as offering something new,” she says. “It respects the musical text, and the sonorities and spirit of Beethoven’s own time, whilst also seeking the kind of atmosphere and amplitude that speak to us today.”
The album was recorded live at the Seine Musicale, the new arts complex on the outskirts of Paris, where Equilbey and the Insula Orchestra are resident artists.
