Brahms: Piano Concerto No. 2 | Yefim Bronfman, Antonio Pappano & the Verbier Festival Orchestra

One of the most beautiful piano concertos of all time. Johannes Brahms sat at the piano when his Piano Concerto No. 2 in B-flat major, Op. 83 was performed for the first time – to great applause – in Budapest in 1881. Here, you hear this romantic orchestral piece being played in a live recording from the 2017 Verbier Festival. Antonio Pappano was conducting the Verbier Festival Orchester, while Yefim Bronfman played the piano.
