LIVE: 250 Jahre Ludwig van Beethoven – Jubiläumskonzert aus der Oper Bonn I WDR 3

2020-12-17T21:51:38.665Z

Corona changed everything! Last year, on 16 December 2019, a grand celebratory concert was held at the Bonn Opera to kick off the Beethoven anniversary year. On 17 December 2020, on Ludwig van Beethoven's 250th baptismal anniversary, the eventful celebratory year was to come to an end with a performance of the 9th Symphony conducted by Daniel Barenboim. However, just as many events could not take place due to the Corona pandemic, the festive concert, with a modified program, now marks the climax of a Beethoven anniversary extended until 2021. But one thing remains: at the centre of this concert is the idea that Beethoven raised his musical voice to express the confidence of peaceful and joyful human coexistence. His music is an appeal to humanity and is based on the conviction that we are all united by a moral core of togetherness.

Program:

West-Eastern Divan Orchestra
Piano and conductor: Daniel Barenboim

Ludwig van Beethoven:
Piano Concerto No. 3 in C minor, op. 37
Symphony No. 5 in C minor, op. 67

Speech by Germany's Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier

Host: Daniel Hope

Producer: Westdeutscher Rundfunk

Live from Bonn Opera House
