Carmen Meets Beethoven is a celebration of powerful women in music, featuring iconic works and a new violin concerto by composer Nancy Ives. The concert opens with Beethoven’s Fidelio Overture, the heroic story of a woman’s daring quest to free her imprisoned husband. Ives’ Immortal Beloved explores the mystery of Beethoven’s famous love letters, with Yakima Symphony Orchestra’s own Concertmaster Denise Dillenbeck bringing its themes to life. Immortal Beloved was composed for and premiered by Dillenbeck in 2024. The evening culminates in selections from Carmen, Bizet’s fiery and iconic operatic portrait of a passionate woman.
