Programme
Ludwig van Beethoven
Symphony No. 9 in D minor, Op. 125
A story of peaceful coexistence and harmony
We are living at a time of a united Europe, and the common denominator and anthem of this unity is the ‘Ode to Joy’. Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony is the summary of his work, the powerful final chord of a great path of growth, as well as a pioneer of the Romantic era, symbolising the quest to escape from darkness to light, the struggle between good and evil.
The concert has no intermission and the length is 1 hour and 25 minutes
Producer of the festival Tallinn Philharmonic Society
