Le Concert Olympique olv. Jan Caeyers

Although Beethoven swept through the 19^th-century artistic world as a great innovator, he also admired Joseph Haydn, the godfather of classicism. Haydn crowned his impressive series of symphonies with six ‘London-based’ masterpieces. Symphony no. 104, ‘The London Symphony’ is packed with typical Haydnesque humour, spry rhythms, playful forms and original themes.

Just like the ‘Emperor Concerto’, Beethoven’s Fifth Concerto for piano and orchestra needs no introduction. This effervescent spectacle still appeals to everyone’s imagination. And in Beethoven’s ‘Triple Concerto’ not one, but three soloists drive the orchestra to the limit in a colourful spectacle. With Jan Caeyers’ passion for Beethoven and the zealous young musicians of Le Concert Olympique, this once again promises to be a gripping listening experience.
