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.
