Weber’s Oberon Overture provides a magical opener to this concert of Romantic classics, performed by one of Austria’s leading orchestras. Brahms’s 1st Piano Concerto is an undisputed heavyweight, storming and stressing at the beginning, meditative at its heart and fiercely triumphant at the end. Natasha Paremski, who made such a big impression here in 2009, steps up to the Steinway once again. The impact of Beethoven’s 7th Symphony was so great, when it was first performed, that the concert had to be repeated to meet the demand. Two hundred years later it’s still impossible to deny its athletic energy. Even in its quieter moments the spirit of the dance is never far away, and the finale really takes off, propelled by leaping rhythms and gravity-defying horns.
