Presented by the Arlekin company, this production imaginatively and playfully inhabits memories and scenes from Beethoven’s life, offering a vivid portrait of one of history’s greatest composers. As he endures deafness, isolation, and poverty, Beethoven’s unshakable faith in music and humanity becomes a source of redemption and transcendence. What do we hear when the world falls silent? For Beethoven, the answer is extraordinary music—a declaration of resistance in bleak times. His suffering does not destroy him; instead, he transforms it into art.
Features Beethoven’s classical work as well as original music composed and performed by Boston’s Sarah Infini Takagi.
