Review by Dave Harrison

Beethoven’s Klavierkonzert Nr. 3: A Rollercoaster of Feels, Courtesy of Backhaus and Co. Alright, buckle up, because Ludwig van Beethoven’s Klavierkonzert Nr. 3 is one heck of a ride—and this version by Wilhelm Backhaus, Hans Schmidt-Isserstedt, and the Wiener Philharmoniker on Decca? It's like sipping espresso while staring at a dramatic Alpine sunset. You know—emotional but classy. This Swiss-released gem from the Romantic era doesn’t just sit there politely; it grabs you by the feels and shakes. Let’s dive into two standout tracks that’ll stick with you longer than your last bad haircut. --- Track 1: Satz: Allegro Con Brio Okay, so this thing starts off all mysterious and brooding, like someone left Beethoven alone in a dark room to think about life. Then BAM—it explodes into action faster than your cat running away from a cucumber. Backhaus nails the piano part here, hammering out those chords like he’s trying to prove something (maybe his immortal soul?). Meanwhile, the orchestra chimes in like an overenthusiastic choir at church—loud, proud, and kinda glorious. Honestly, I couldn’t stop humming bits of this track for days. Or maybe weeks. Who even knows anymore? What makes it unforgettable? The tension! It’s like watching two world-class chefs argue over whose soufflé recipe is better—but instead of yelling, they’re playing music. And oh boy, does it work. --- Track 2: Satz: Largo Now we switch gears completely. If “Allegro Con Brio” was the chaotic energy of Friday night karaoke, “Largo” is Sunday morning coffee with a side of existential dread. This movement is slow, moody, and dripping with melancholy—basically what happens when Beethoven decides to write poetry using notes instead of words. Backhaus plays these delicate phrases as if his life depends on it, and the strings swell behind him like clouds gathering before a storm. It’s beautiful, haunting, and honestly a little bit heartbreaking. This is the kind of music that makes you want to stare out a rainy window while contemplating whether humanity deserves dogs. Heavy stuff, right? --- Final Thoughts So yeah, Klavierkonzert Nr. 3 isn’t just some random classical album collecting dust in your grandma’s attic. With its mix of fiery drama and soul-crushing beauty, it’s the perfect soundtrack for both deep thoughts and impromptu dance parties where no one actually dances. Kudos to Backhaus for absolutely shredding on the keys (yes, shredding can apply to classical pianists too) and to Schmidt-Isserstedt for keeping the whole operation tight. Unexpected takeaway? Listening to this record reminded me why people still care about Beethoven centuries later—he didn’t just compose music; he composed feelings. Also, I now have an inexplicable urge to learn German. Danke, Ludwig. Rating: 9/10 – only because my dog got jealous of all the attention I was giving it.

German composer and pianist, born in 1770 (baptized 17 December 1770) in Bonn, Germany and died 26 March 1827 in Vienna, Austria. A crucial figure in the transition between the Classical and Romantic eras in classical music. Beethoven led Viennese Classicism to its highest development and paved the way for Romantic music. Beethoven was the eldest son of a singer in the Kapelle of the Archbishop-Elector of Cologne and grandson of the Archbishop's Kapellmeister. He moved in 1792 to Vienna, where he had some lessons from Haydn and others, quickly establishing himself as a remarkable keyboard-player and original composer. By 1815 increasing deafness made public performance impossible and accentuated existing eccentricities of character, patiently tolerated by a series of rich patrons and his royal pupil the Archduke Rudolph. Beethoven did much to enlarge the possibilities of music and widen the horizons of later generations of composers. To his contemporaries he was sometimes a controversial figure, making heavy demands on listeners both by the length and by the complexity of his writing, as he explored new fields of music.
