The OBC joins the events commemorating the 250th anniversary of Beethoven's birth, offering five programs with fifteen works by the composer.
The first program, under the baton of the great expert in music from the Classical period and principal guest conductor of the OBC, Jan Willem de Vriend, is a recreation of the concert performed by Beethoven himself at the Imperial Palace of Vienna on February 27, 1814: the premiere of the fresh and light-hearted 8th Symphony and the performance of three portfolio works. Firstly, the 7th Symphony (which premiered with great success two months earlier), followed by a vocal trio composed at the time he was receiving classes from the legendary Antonio Salieri and, finally, the spectacular Victory Symphony-including cannon shots and bell peals - which overshadowed the performance of the rest of the program.
