Beethoven 256
Beethoven – Coriolan Overture
Beethoven – Symphony no.4
Beethoven – Symphony no.7
Rick Prakhoff – conductor
Jessica Zuk – conductor
Beethoven fans were left disappointed in 2020 with a somewhat curtailed 250th Anniversary celebration. We make up for it with this concert devoted to the bad-boy of Classical music.
We open with the Coriolan Overture, written as an introduction to Heinrich Joseph von Collin’s tragedy about the legendary, defiant Roman general, Coriolanus.
Symphony No. 4 displays the lively and dramatic character we’ve come to expect from Beethoven. It shows his wit and lyricism with brilliant scoring for woodwinds.
Symphony No. 7 is full of relentless, driving rhythms, concluding with an ecstatic finale. Richard Wagner came to describe the symphony as “the apotheosis of the dance”.
Enjoy a Sunday afternoon devoted to the symphonies of Beethoven.
Sunday 21 June 2026 2:30 PM - 4:30 PM (UTC+10)
