Join the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, John Suchet and friends on a journey through the powerful and inspirational world of ‘Beethoven: The Revolutionary’. A brand new series of summertime concerts at our resident London home, Cadogan Hall, in June 2022.
Beethoven may be a byword for classical music in 2022, but 250 years ago his compositions and politics, deeply intertwined, burst into the world and changed music forever. In a world rocked by revolution in America and France, Beethoven fervently believed in freedom and a more democratic future for all and he used the power of his music to convey not just emotions, but political ideas as well.
Presented by John Suchet.
