The first release, which featured the First and Fifth Concertos, received glowing rews in the music press. François-Frédéric Guy is now firmly established as a pianist of immense interpretative authority and superlative technique. With his exceptional command of keyboard sonority he has a special gift for music of the grandest scale, such as the major works of Brahms, Liszt and Beethoven. His recording of Beethoven's \"Hammerklar\" sonata for Naïve was recently picked as BBC Radio 3's \"Building a Library\" choice. Philippe Jordan is one of the rising stars of the conductor's world. He has recently been appointed as Music Director of the Opera National de Paris, starting in the 2009-10 season. The Fourth Piano Concerto was dedicated to Beethoven's friend, student, and patron, the Archduke Rudolph, and its first public took place on the 22nd of December 1808 in nna at the Theater an der Wien, where the composer himself took the stage as soloist. This was part of a marathon concert which saw Beethoven's last appearance as a soloist with orchestra, as well as the premieres of the Choral Fantasy and the Fifth and Sixth symphonies. After its first performance, the piece was neglected until 1836, when it was revived by Felix Mendelssohn. Today, it is widely performed and recorded, considered one of the central works of the piano concerto literature. The Quintet in E flat for Piano and Winds, Op. 16, was written in 1796. It was inspired by Mozart's work, K. 452, which is likewise in E flat and has the same scoring.
