THE Irish Chamber Orchestra embarks on a cycle of Beethovenโs amazing five piano concertos over the coming seasons.
โ These piano concertos are masterworks of a genre revolutionised by Beethoven. The first three demonstrate the rising star, the fourth a genius in the making and the fifth a real trailblazer. All five are equally virtuosic and vastly different in style.โ says Charlotte Eglington of ICO.
โIf you love Beethoven, relish the sound of one of Irelandโs most creative orchestras, and revel in superb piano-playing, join us and the brilliant Kristian Bezuidenhout in Limerick, Tralee, and Dublin on 20, 21 and 22 October.โ
Bezuidenhout will be directing these concertos from the keyboard without a conductor, promising our audiences an unmissable experience. He offers spontaneity and a whole new perspective on Beethovenโs music!
