Beethoven's Triple Concerto with Tucson Symphony Orchestra

The Tucson Symphony Orchestra joins forces with Trio Con Brio and pianist Katharina Wincor for a performance of Beethoven's Triple Concerto. This rare work for violin, cello, and piano is the only concerto Beethoven completed for multiple soloists. The piece unfolds across three movements, opening with a stately Allegro, followed by a serene Largo that transitions without pause into the spirited Rondo alla polacca.

Composed in the early 1800s, the Triple Concerto was premiered in Vienna in 1808 with violin soloist Carl August Seidler and cellist Nikolaus Kraft. Its scoring includes winds, brass, and timpani, creating a rich orchestral backdrop for the solo trio. This concert in Tucson offers a chance to hear a cornerstone of the classical repertoire performed by a talented ensemble.
