Klavierkonzerte Nos. 4 & 5 = Piano Concertos = Concertos Pour Piano
Wilhelm Kempff brings Classical restraint and Romantic warmth to Beethoven's piano concertos. Paired with the Berlin Philharmonic under Ferdinand Leitner, he tackles the Fourth and Fifth (Emperor) concertos—two great pillars of the repertoire. The Fourth is introspective and searching; the Fifth is grandeur incarnate, with its famous opening tutti announcing the Emperor's arrival. Kempff's readings are never rushed, never flashy—they trust the music's structure and emotional weight. These 1995 performances capture a mature artist in complete command, delivering readings that set the gold standard.
