What if we reconstruct Beethoven’s music from the perspective of the 21st century?

Despite the two hundred years that separate them, John Adams feels close to Beethoven: the two composers’ ecstatic energy and their ability to create expressive musical structures from a minimal quantity of materials is common to both composers. In this case, Adams uses fragments of Beethoven’s works to craft them into a whole new musical fabric.

Performers:

• Barcelona Symphony Orchestra (OBC)
• Cuarteto Casals
• Nuno Coelho, conductor
