We went to the CSO tonight - overall a very good program:
The pre-concert talk was given by Johann Buis, whose enthusiasm and knowledge always make for an entertaining lecture.
As the Lutoslawski ended, somebody rudely booed - presumably to display his displeasure at any music from the last century, or something.
The video below shows a much younger Murray Perahia playing the end of the Beethoven.
Another video of the whole last movement - better filmed, conducted by Colin Davis.
And finally, further from tonight's actual performance, but very interesting - Ricardo Muti (the next CSO Music Director) and Claudio Arrau rehearsing the Beethoven in mixed English and Italian:
Chicago Symphony Orchestra
Bernard Haitink, conductor
Murray Perahia, pianoHaydn - Symphony No. 44 (Mourning)
Lutoslawski - Symphony No. 4
Beethoven - Piano Concerto No. 4
