Production details
Award-winning conductor Daniel Smith, whose awards include Second Prize in the Sir Georg Solti International Conducting Competition, makes his debut with the LPO with three works of consummate perfection from the composers who effectively created what we now know as 'the symphony'. Beethoven's First might be stunningly proportioned and neat, but from its opening discord the Symphony showed that its creator had new and compelling things to say. After Haydn's most enchanting piano concerto performed by Maria Meerovitch, we hear Mozart's final symphony - a staggering and uncanny marriage of technical wizardry to emotional profundity, and the peak of Mozart's orchestral achievements.
