Description: ROBERT LEVIN/Members of ORCHESTRE REVOLUTIONNAIRE et ROMANTIQUEBEETHOVEN: Piano Concerto No. 4 / Symphony No. 2 US CD re-issue from 2003. STILL SEALED <<$2 DOMESTIC STANDARD SHIPPING>> ALBUM INFO: Part of Archiv Produktion's "Blue" re-issue series from 2003, originally issued in 1997. "These are transcriptions of orchestral works for chamber ensembles. Both transcriptions are played on a light-toned fortepiano and cat-gutted stringed instruments. For the dedicated listener who knows and loves Beethoven's Symphony No. 2 and Piano Concerto No. 4 and who accepts and enjoys period instruments, this disc will be pure enjoyment. The chance to hear transcriptions of familiar works, especially when those transcriptions are made by the composer, is exciting for the dedicated listener. Also, the chance to hear those transcriptions played on instruments of the composer's time, especially when the performances are as expertly played as these, is almost irresistible. Robert Levin is one of the best contemporary fortepianists and his playing here is flexible and virtuosic. The string players are all drawn from the Orchestre Revolutionnaire et Romantique are their playing here is delicate and dexterous. Together, Levin and the string players turn in performances that are convincing as transcriptions and compelling as interpretations. Not for the casual listener, but it is delightful for the dedicated listener."
