    The Fischer/Furtwängler cooperation has quite simply produced one of the greatest concerto recordings in history. One might have thought that Furtwängler's expressive power and dramatic tension would be incompatible with Fischer's poetic, humane playing, but this is not the case. The inner effervescence of both masters results in a palpable, unheard-of emotion. The two artists share a common bond: an extraordinary perception of music that enables them to emerge from the excesses of a poorly assimilated post-romanticism and rediscover the central nerve of the true romantic tradition, that ability to translate the expression of the most vivid and ardent feelings with a form of "elegance and moral modesty". Such a recording is to be analyzed and meditated on, bar by bar, second by second. The two merge wonderfully, to Beethoven's great glory.
    Energetic, heroic, triumphant... Beethoven's last piano concerto is also his most famous. Beethoven composed his Piano Concerto No. 5 in 1809, at the height of the Napoleonic Wars. Residing in Vienna, he witnessed the clashes between the French and Austrian armies during the composition. "What an exhausting and devastating life around me; nothing but drums, cannons, human misery of every kind", writes Beethoven, yet despite the din of battle, Beethoven retains his creative verve and composes this brilliant concerto, in which arpeggios, trills and scales surge across the keyboard. This Concerto No. 5 was nicknamed "Emperor" after its composer's death. In Beethoven's eyes, it was the "Great Concerto". From the outset, the tone is warlike, frank and assertive. The composer himself notes a series of terms in the score sketches ("victory", "battle", "attack"...). This dazzling aspect is reinforced by the key of E-flat major (that of the Eroica Symphony) and by the imposing first movement, some twenty minutes long. Premiered on November 28, 1811, the Concerto appears in many respects to be a work of accomplishment, even if the public of the time considered it too complicated. After the Emperor, Beethoven sketched out a sixth concerto, but the work remained unfinished.
    Leon Plantinga : "The truth, of course, is that this concerto has no identifiable connection with any emperor. The symbolism here, as in all substantial music, is much subtler, both richer and more diffuse than the simple property of reporting on an emperor, an army, a battle, or even battles or military actions in general. Any invocation of such things in this music must be seen as metaphorical: the military stakes, that constant presence in Beethoven's world, may have inspired him (and now us) to a more general human struggle, and his heroic postures are about a nobility of character necessary to prevail."
