Jan Lisiecki, piano
After an engaging overture by Vaughan Williams, Music Director Peter Oundjian continues a cycle of all five of Beethoven’s piano concertos, each performed by the award-winning Jan Lisiecki. Beethoven wrote his Second Piano Concerto to showcase his talents as a budding young pianist; the Fourth was composed by a more mature Beethoven, one exploring his inventive side—for instance, through his radical and unprecedented idea of beginning the concerto with solo piano.
