Semyon Bychkov and Robert Levin perform Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 5
Filarmonica della Scala
May 2010, La Scala. Semyon Bychkov conducts the mythical milanese orchestra in a 100 % German programme. This film features their performance of Beethoven’s Fifth Concerto, played by the pianist Robert Levin. Composed between 1808 and 1811, ‘The Emperor’ – as they call it – is contemporary of the early Romantism: it opens on a piano improvisation, and its form grows out of bonds as it plays
