Beethoven: Mass in C
Saint-Saëns: Piano Concerto No. 2 in G Minor
ERIC ZUBER, Piano
Prince Esterházy labeled Beethoven’s Mass in C as “unbearably ridiculous and detestable.” Virtuoso pianist Stojowski trashed Saint-Saëns’ bombastic second concerto as being nothing more than “Bach meets Offenbach”. Discover for yourself why these ‘rock star’ masterpieces outlive their critics.
