| Description: | To celebrate Beethoven's 250 birthday in 2020, the RPO and Elizabeth Sombart begin a series of recordings of his Piano Concertos. - .. NOS. 1 & 2 / ROYAL PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRABorn in Strasbourg, Elizabeth Sombart studied piano from the age of seven. She studied all over the world with various teachers, including Bruno-Leonardo Gelber, Peter Feuchtwanger, Hilde Langer-Ruhl and Sergiu Celibidache. Elizabeth received the rank of Chevalier de l'Ordre National du Mérite in 2006 and then was awarded the Chevalier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres in 2008, both in reference to her career in music. Elizabeth has a strong relationship with the RPO and will be continuing this Beethoven Piano Concerto cycle with them over the coming months. Beethoven is one of the single most influential figures in the history of Western music. Starting out with Mozart and Haydn as his spiritual mentors, he wrestled off the shackles of 18th century Classicism, forging uncompromising musical landscapes with a visionary intensity that left most musicians quivering in his wake. For centuries, music had lagged behind the other arts, but with Beethoven's iron-clad will, it found itself at the cutting edge of social change.Total timings: 70.22
