Experience the revolutionary passion of the ultimate musical firebrand. Beethoven is a hero of Romantic art, an explorer of the limits of emotion from deepest despair to ecstatic joy. Join us for a survey of the incredible breadth and depth of Beethoven’s genius and undertake the journey through all Beethoven’s symphonies... an unforgettable fortnight of musical revolution and revelation.
Over two weeks, Sydney Symphony will perform all of Beethoven’s symphonies between Wed 30 May and Sun 10 June. Directed by Chief Conductor and Artistic Director Gianluigi Gelmetti, and joined by pianist Gerhard Oppitz. A student of the famed Wilhelm Kempff, Oppitz is heir to a glorious tradition of music-making stretching in an unbroken line back to Beethoven himself.
