Lyric poet Lupu collaborates with Mehta to create a masterpiece concerto that poetically depicts the brilliance of the young Beethoven.
Radu Lupu, known for his unparalleled vocal talent, has recorded two of Beethoven's early concertos with the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Zubin Mehta, and on this album he brings out the driving force and lyricism of the works naturally with his transparent touch and soft tone.
