Beethoven, "The Emperor" / Emanuel Ax

There are so many repertoires that Emanuel Ax serves prodigiously: as soloist, in front of the orchestra, in chamber music, with his friends Yo-Yo Ma or yesterday Isaac Stern, this prince among pianists is always of perfect musicality. He gives us his vision of the most famous of the Romantic concertos, L'Empereur: the irresistible Beethovenian call, between two French works, Louise Farrenc'sOuverture no. 2, and the Symphonie du malheureux by Chausson, the composer who died in his prime.
