Nature in all its glory is the star of this performance of Beethoven’s Pastoral, which takes us into the heart of Viennese Classicism. Thomas Rösner, Artistic Director of the Beethoven Philharmonie in Vienna, is an expert in the Classical period and the music of Beethoven. He returns to the Palau de la Música Catalana to offer us a program full of color and light.

Beethoven loved the natural world and decided to pay homage to it in his Symphony No. 6. Some of the best-known passages he ever wrote can be found in this work, including the merry gathering of country folk, the peaceful scene by the brook, and the vivid depiction of a storm, full of musical thunder and lightning.

Classical music fans won’t want to miss this very special event.
