It’s a divine and thrilling performance that makes you feel as though you’re witnessing the world premiere of these works!\n\nThis release features a combination of Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 3—his only piano concerto in a minor key—and No. 1. Once again, it’s a succession of breathtaking moments that leave you in awe of Bezidenhout’s inspiration and talent! While both cadenzas are based on Beethoven’s originals, they also incorporate passages composed by Bezidenhout himself. Furthermore, in the third movement of the No. 3, when the rondo-form theme returns, Bezidenhout crafted his own unique transition—drawing inspiration from Beethoven’s original—and performed it.\nIt feels as if you are listening to an exquisite improvisation, creating a thrill as if you were witnessing the premiere of this concerto! The FBO orchestra, led by Elas-Casado, makes every single note resonate as if it were being born in that very moment. Needless to say, the ensemble between the piano and the orchestra is magnificent. It’s a performance you’ll want to savor, one that makes you regret every passing moment.\nBeethoven’s Piano Concertos by the same ensemble—Nos. 2 \u0026amp; 5 [HMM-902411 \u0026amp; KKC-6143] and No. 4 [HMM-902413 \u0026amp; KKC-6264] by this same ensemble have been highly acclaimed, and a disc featuring the Ninth Symphony and Choral Fantasy by the same ensemble [HMM-902431 \u0026amp; KKC-6234] won the 2020 Academy Grand Prize.\nKing International\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTracklisting:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.Piano Concerto no. 3 Op. 37 C minor~I.
