Beethoven: Symphony No. 4

成人快手 Philharmonic
Elisabeth Brauss (piano)
Ben Gernon (conductor)

Drum roll please! The 成人快手 Philharmonic returns to the Royal Albert Hall for the first time since August 2019 opening their concert of Classical masterpieces with Haydn's exuberant and life-affirming Symphony No 103, a work alert to the taste of Londoners in the 1790s and the 2020s. 成人快手 New Generation Artist Elisabeth Brauss joins them for Mozart's intimate Piano Concerto No 23 (K 488) with its sunny outer movements enclosing a heartbreaking, melancholy adagio. Their concert ends with Beethoven's Fourth Symphony, a work that immediately opens a new chapter in symphonic writing with its dark, searching introduction giving way to an effervescent volcano of energy. Ben Gernon conducts.
