Beethoven - Piano Concertos 3 & 4 /Immerseel, Tafelmusik



Ludwig van Beethoven

Piano Concertos 3 & 4

Jos van Immerseel (Fortepiano)

Tafelmusik

Bruno Weil


Performances of Beethoven's piano concertos on "authentic" instruments depend heavily on the tonal qualities of the fortepiano. One reason Beethoven sounds so terrific on a modern piano is that he imagined his music for as large an instrument as he could get his hands on--and as long as the performer scales his tone to the capacity of his piano, a piece will work. But choose an instrument with too puny a sound, and the result doesn't bear listening to. Jos van Immerseel has selected for these performances a fortepiano with a lovely, full tone that preserves the clarity we've come to expect from period instruments, but which isn't dwarfed by the music. His sparkling playing completes a totally successful release. --David Hurwitz
