Here’s a performance of Beethoven’s Triple Concerto that conveys a palpable sense of occasion…Although Anne-Sophie Mutter and Yo-Yo Ma’s partnership is stronger on dramatic juxtaposition than tonal blend, both really dig into their parts, sometimes even throw caution to the wind..Barenboim (conducting from the piano) facilitates real flexibility in regards to tempo, resulting in a convincing sense of improvisatory abandon, and the orchestra match their fervour.
