Available on UHD Bluray, with the latter including Dolby Atmos, the legendary conductor and the 2016 ECHO Klassik Award winning pianist showcase a performance of the piano’s most famous orchestral repertoire; Beethoven’s infectious and virtuosic Piano Concerto No. 1. and Liszt’s Piano Concerto No. 2 with its waves of sound and grandiose third movement.

Thanks to Dolby Atmos, audiences will be able to enjoy the classical music in unprecedented quality.

The revolutionary technology enhances the classical experience by moving audio around the audience, even overhead and transporting them into the center of the story. Its adaptive rendering ensures the playback experience is as close as possible to the creator’s original vision in any given environment. The precise placement of sound brings the ultimate cinema sound experience to the home theater and creates powerful, moving audio that flows around the listener. Audiences can be immersed in the music at the very heart of the orchestra and enjoy sound dimensions as never experienced before.
