Unique video of Beethoven's five piano concertos, played by a young Vladimir Ashkenazy at the height of his pianist career. few commercially available Ashkenazy videos are on the piano, making this set a must have for fans and the general public alike.
Accompanied by the London Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by the great conductor Bernard Haitink, this was the first time on television: all five concerts had never been broadcast live before.
Although we focus on piano concerts here, several overtures by Beethoven and the complete Symphony No. 8 were also included in the program. Filmed and broadcast live at London's iconic Royal Festival Hall in its former glory, before it was remodeled with a complete internal makeover.

They played almost 3 hours of intense music with very little rests between pieces. Incredible.

@Davidfooterman

Lots of pianists have the technique to guarantee accuracy. Lots have the musicality to want to do so. Only a few have the ability to maintain the intense concentration necessary to keep it at 100% throughout a performance.

Ashkenazy and Haitink created an ideal artistic partnership. The diminutive Russian at his pianistic peak, creating performances of inexorable logic and imagination with superlative technical mastery.

This pianist's presence is not merely formidable; it is an embodiment of overwhelming authority that transcends the realms of artistic excellence, technical proficiency, and interpretative depth. This singular presence, in itself, suffices to warrant him an elevated appraisal, surpassing the conventional metrics of artistic and technical evaluation. It emanates from an intricate synthesis of profound understanding and fervent passion for the art form, thereby instilling in both the audience and performers an indelible impact. Through his performances, he not only demonstrates technical mastery and insightful interpretation but also infuses his renditions with a distinctive essence, thereby leaving an enduring impression upon the listeners. This presence, thus, forms the nucleus of his performances, adeptly conveying the quintessence of music and eliciting profound emotional responses from the audience. Consequently, his presence elevates beyond that of a conventional performer, assuming the role of a conjurer who forges an intangible rapport with the audience. Through the medium of music, he engages in a profound dialogue with the listeners’ souls, harnessing the sublime power to resonate with their innermost sentiments and catalyze a cascade of empathetic reverberations.

The most amazing concert I have ever heard: all 5 of Beethoven piano concertos played my Vladimir Ashkenazy at the height of his career. I saw him play live recently at the Noorda Theater at UVU.

KDFC, the San Francisco Bay Area classical music station, plays relatively little Beethoven, considering he is by far the most popular composer in their listener surveys. (They seem to be playing to the masses for donations . . . not surprising.) I'm so glad I found this extraordinary set of masterworks performances. I listen several times a week.

Incredible artistry and stamina with precision! What an artist Ashkenazy is, without pretense and grimacing- a delight to our eyes and especially ears!

36歳のアシュケナージ氏、素晴らしい演奏の合間に見せる仕草や表情が、まるで天才少年がそのまま大人になったような感じで可愛らしいですね。アシュケナージ氏はこの後ベ一ト一ヴェンピアノ協奏曲全集を何度かリリースされ勿論何れも名盤ですが、私は1974年のこの録音が一番好きです。

Claudio Arrau and Vladimir Ashkenazi: my two favest interpreters of the immortal Ludwig's piano concertos.
