Artistes présents:
Emanuel Ax
Michael Tilson Thomas and the San Francisco Symphony are joined by legendary pianist and longtime friend Emanuel Ax for Beethoven’s Second Piano Concerto, available on the San Francisco Symphony’s 2019–20 Digital Concert Series. The work, written by a young Beethoven, already has all the marks of the composer’s genius: infectious melodies, a moving and lyrical slow movement, and boisterous finale.
