Anne-Sophie Mutter, Daniel Barenboim, Yo-Yo Ma – Beethoven: Triple Concerto in C Major, Op. 56 No. 2

Three classical music giants, Anne-Sophie Mutter, Yo-Yo Ma and Daniel Barenboim celebrate the 250th anniversary of Beethoven’s birth by recording the Triple Concerto. Pairing the Concerto with the Seventh Symphony, the album also marks the 20th birthday of the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra.

The Triple Concerto has a special place in Beethoven’s oeuvre, revealing his revolutionary spirit and ingrained humour both in its sophisticated architecture and in its musical idiom. Ever inventive, creative and original, here Beethoven stages a lavish musical feast over-flowing with melody, a feast. Yo-Yo Ma puts it in these words: “For me, in the Triple Concerto, it’s the constant invention that always takes me by surprise. You know what I love about the piece? It’s so celebratory, so positive.” Performed by three of today’s most renowned classical artists and Beethoven interpreters – Anne-Sophie Mutter, Yo-Yo Ma and Daniel Barenboim and accompanied by the acclaimed West-Eastern Divan Orchestra. Watch them perform Beethoven's Triple Concerto in C Major, Op. 56, No.2 Largo – Attacca, Live at Philharmonie, Berlin (2019).

Anne-Sophie Mutter says “Beethoven has really found the eternal message of embracing mankind. The idea that we can and should live in a brother and sisterhood is really the essence of his music.”
Do you agree?

My Grandfather used to enjoy Yo-Yo's company very much. He was the first chair Cello of Philadelphia for over 30 years.

Se non ci fosse la musica che mondo sarebbe. Grazie a Dio di averci donato tutto ciò, da Beethoven a questi straordinari esecutori e a tutto ciò che con la musica ci dona la gioia più profonda dell'anima. Buona vita

Only these 3 Legants play such a immortal piece so beautifally … This piece also shows Beethoven’s intelligancy and harmony beetween violin, çello and piano… ❤️🙏

[annab]

What a beautiful piece and played so beautifully. A gifted Maestro Yoyo Ma, when he plays in duet mode, he engages the other artist, and when he plays alone, he is in that moment, transfixed with he and his cello, bravo, bravo.

When three greats play together in true ensemble, we have a landmark event. I, too, would like to hear this from beginning to end on YT. DG, it’s in your power to give this to your adoring public during this stay-at-home pandemic. That would be something for all of us to remember in this time of spiritual need.
