Details
Philippe Herreweghe returns to the Palau with his clear and refined vision of the transition between Beethovenian classicism and romanticism. In this program, Symphony No. 2 reveals a Beethoven in full creative effervescence, with writing full of vigor and audacity. In the Eighth, the composer lets go with humor and wit, in one of his most singular and brilliant works. The concert opens with the refined Piano Concerto No. 4, where Beethoven unfolds all his lyricism and formal balance. A unique opportunity to rediscover these three pillars of the repertoire with the historical sound and interpretative finesse of Herreweghe and his orchestra.
