Vasily Petrenko conducts the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic in music by Beethoven: Overture (Prometheus); Piano Concerto No 4 (with soloist Nikolai Lugansky).

Presented by Stuart Flinders

Live from the Philharmonic Hall, Liverpool

Live from Liverpool's Philharmonic Hall, Stuart Flinders introduces an all-Beethoven programme performed by the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Vasily Petrenko. Opening with the composer's highly dramatic Overture to Prometheus, they are then joined by the Russian pianist Nikolai Lugansky for the 4th Piano Concerto which so captivated the twenty-six year old Robert Schumann before the concert culminates in the ever-popular Pastoral world of Beethoven's Symphony No. 6.
