Beethoven’s Moods (Piano Concerto no 2)
Beethoven was a man of many contrasting moods. Happy one minute, angry the next and all of these moods made their way into his music. The listening task below features a performance of Beethoven’s Piano Concerto no 2 played by Paul Lewis and the Scottish Chamber Orchestra. You’ll need paper and pens and a ‘Beethoven head’ (see link below).
