Beethoven: The Power of Three
Irli Shaham, Piano
Piotr Gajewski, conductor
Hailed by critics on four continents,
pianist Orli Shaham kicks off the
National Philharmonic’s 2012-2013
season with Beethoven’s sublime
Piano Concerto No. 3. The heroic
Symphony No. 3 (“Eroica”)—originally
dedicated to Napoleon—marked the
arrival of Beethoven’s middle period,
featuring powerful large-scale works.
