Why it's fantastic
Experience the thunderous opening that defined the sound of space cinema in Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey. Before the brass settles, legendary pianist Elisabeth Leonskaja joins the orchestra for Beethoven’s final piano concerto, a work of regal power that remains the composer’s most ambitious contribution to the instrument.
