Searching for clues in the historical record of how Beethoven played his first four piano concertos, Kristian Bezuidenhout considered the spontaneous nature of some of the premiere performances and has extrapolated options for his own interpretations. Beethoven's cadenzas were initially improvised, emulating Mozart's practice, and this contributed to his reputation as a pianist to watch in the late 1790s. Reflecting Beethoven's eagerness to impress the public with demonstrations of his exceptional virtuosity and invention, the early concertos quickly made him a celebrity in Vienna and across Europe. For this 2020 release on Harmonia Mundi, Bezuidenhout joins Pablo Heras-Casado and the Freiburger Barockorchester in period-style performances of the Piano Concerto No. 2 in B flat major, Op. 19 (1798), which Beethoven played, and the Piano Concerto No. 5 in E flat major, "Emperor," Op. 73 (1809), which he did not, having become profoundly deaf by that time and unable to hear the orchestra or his own part. Bezuidenhout plays a fortepiano, a modern copy of an 1824 Graf instrument, and he is accompanied by a small but robust chamber orchestra that permits a fair competition with the lean, metallic sound of the keyboard. This works reasonably well in the Piano Concerto No. 2, where the music accords with this balance, and Bezuidenhout plays his transcription of Robert Levin's improvised cadenza, which was recorded in 1999 with John Eliot Gardiner and the Orchestre Révolutionnaire et Romantique. However, the sound of the fortepiano seems at times insufficient for the "Emperor," which is cast in Beethoven's heroic mold and seems unnecessarily thin and tinny in this recording, despite the opportunity Bezuidenhout had to use a different and stronger sounding instrument, which he turned down for musical and logistical reasons. Harmonia Mundi's recording is clear and focused, and tends to favor the orchestra over the fortepiano, especially in the Piano Concerto No. 5.
