Anne Sophie Mutter, Daniel Barenboim, Yo Yo Ma Beethoven: Triple Concerto in C Major, Op. 56 No. 2
Three classical music giants, AnneSophie Mutter, YoYo Ma and Daniel Barenboim celebrate the 250th anniversary of Beethovens birth by recording the Triple Concerto.

The Triple Concerto has a special place in Beethovens 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 overflowing with melody, a feast. YoYo Ma puts it in these words: For me, in the Triple Concerto, its the constant invention that always takes me by surprise. You know what I love about the piece Its so celebratory, so positive. Performed by three of todays most renowned classical artists and Beethoven interpreters AnneSophie Mutter, YoYo Ma and Daniel Barenboim and accompanied by the acclaimed WestEastern Divan Orchestra.
