A Classical Music Rockstar

One of our generation's greatest stars of classical music, Lang Lang, performs thrilling renditions of two of Beethoven's sublime piano concertos, his Piano Concerto No. 1 and Piano Concerto No. 4 with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra! The Chinese-born virtuosic pianist garners worldwide excitement on a par with any rock star wherever he plays, and his performance with the CSO will certainly not be one to miss.

Two Legendary Piano Pieces

Completed in the year 1800, the high spirited orchestration and rhythmic syncopation of Beethoven's first Piano Concerto conjure an air of melodrama and mischief. The composer's Fourth, meanwhile, is often overshadowed by his other works, yet remains quietly revolutionary in its own right thanks to a trailblazing blend of lush instrumental textures, subtle harmonies and experimentation with form. Together, these two pieces surely provide the perfect vessels for Lang Lang to display all of his flair!
