Renaud and Gautier Capuçon, the cream of French instrumentalists, and the "Tsarina" Martha Argerich.
What a lineup and what a program! Nothing less than two of the most renowned French instrumentalists, Renaud and Gautier Capuçon, and the "Tsarina" of the keyboard, Martha Argerich, for one of the most iconic pieces in the concert repertoire of Beethoven. The Triple Concerto is indeed a unique work in the history of Western music, distinguished by its form and the subtle balance in the dialogue between the three solo instruments and the orchestra. In the second part, Renaud Capuçon will swap his bow for the conductor's baton as he leads Bruckner's 8th Symphony, a work the composer called a "mystery," and which others have described as "apocalyptic"... It's up to you to form your own opinion tonight.
