Paul Lewis and Vertavo Quartet

Live from Wigmore Hall, an all-Beethoven recital from pianist Paul Lewis, Vertavo Quartet and bassist Tim Gibbs, including a chamber version of Beethoven's Piano Concerto No 4.

For the season’s first Radio 3 lunchtime concert, a leading British exponent of Beethoven, Paul Lewis, joins the Norwegian Vertavo Quartet and bassist Tim Gibbs for an unusual performance of the Fourth Piano Concerto, in an arrangement by the German composer Vinzenz Lachner (1811-93) – a conservative musician who struck up a friendship with Brahms.
