Beethoven cycle (IV)
Thu. 21 March 2013 20:30
Megaron – The Athens Concert Hall
Christos Lambrakis Hall
We continue our Beethoven cycle with another pair of symphonies which highlight different facets of the greatest composer of German classicism. The light-hearted and optimistic Eighth is followed by the monumental and explosive Fifth; one of the best-loved works in the classical repertoire, it expresses Man’s clash with Fate and the agonizing journey to the Light.
