Witness the star power of Mitsuko Uchida.
‘Here, time becomes space’ … music can offer purpose; and for Wagner, Beethoven and Bruckner, it held the key to existence itself. Tonight, Beethoven’s third (and darkest) piano concerto is played by the great Mitsuko Uchida; an artist who has devoted a whole lifetime to her art, yet always has something fresh and beautiful to say. LPO Conductor Emeritus Vladimir Jurowski begins with the Prelude to Wagner’s transcendent final opera, and ends with Bruckner’s majestic Seventh Symphony, a requiem to Wagner whose opening, it is said, came to him in a dream, played by an angel. And when you hear it performed live, that’s easy to believe.
