Beethoven & Sibelius

Absorb the hauntingly beautiful poetic qualities of Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 4, featuring the winner of the 2010 International Chopin Piano Competition, Yulianna Avdeeva. Leonard Bernstein called this concerto “one of the most sublime moments in the history of music.” Contrast that with Sibelius’ energetic and triumphant symphony—and its memorable brass fanfares. Sibelius said, "My second symphony is a confession of the soul."

"Avdeeva, with her strength and virtuosity, dominated the instrument, yet conveyed a sense of intimacy." —Splash Magazines
“[Pianist Yulianna Avdeeva’s] playing was sprightly and lithe and surprising, infusing cutting melodies with warmth and even optimism.” - Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
