Tonight, August 29, 2026, at Buenos Aires' Teatro Colón, German pianist Margarita Höhenrieder will perform Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 4. This renowned composer, who lived in Vienna from 1804 to 1815, composed this work during his time at the Pasqualati-Haus, a stately house owned by his patron Baron Johann Baptist Pasqualati.
The concert will be performed by the Camerata Bariloche, Argentina's flagship chamber orchestra, alongside Höhenrieder. Beethoven's Fourth Piano Concerto is often referred to as the 'sacred concerto' due to its profound and spiritual character. The piece opens quietly, with the piano alone, deviating from the typical orchestral introduction.
This program highlights the famous house where Beethoven composed some of his most iconic works, including the Fifth Symphony, the Sixth ('Pastoral') Symphony, the Eighth Symphony, the 'Für Elise' bagatelle, the 'Archduke' Trio, and the opera 'Fidelio.'
