2016 Live Lounge from the Baden-Baden Easter Festival Beethoven and Mozart with Simon Rattle and Mitsuko Uchida at the Easter Festival
Hardly any other work is more suitable for festive occasions than Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony, with its jubilant vision of a better world. After the Berliner Philharmoniker enjoyed success in Berlin and on tour with Beethoven’s symphonies, they presented the pinnacle of the cycle at the Easter Festival in Baden-Baden. The concert also included Mitsuko Uchida as the soloist in Mozart’s Piano Concerto in E Flat Major K. 482.
