Event description

On May 7 1824, Beethoven conducted the first performance of his Ninth Symphony in Vienna. Things did not always go to plan, not to mention the fact that the man in charge was profoundly deaf by that stage. But the new work, of unprecedented scale and ending with a visionary choral setting of Schiller’s Ode to Joy, changed the course of music in Europe. While the hymn has become the musical motto of the European community, Beethoven’s vision of the brotherhood of men has expanded in more ways than one.

Two eminent ensembles from Europe celebrate the universality of its message: Trio Karénine from France and Dudok Quartet Amsterdam from the Netherlands together with Belgian viola player Florian Peelman, based in Berlin.

Beethoven’s Archduke Trio and Brahms’ last String Quintet are two milestones of the European musical canon stemming from the beginning and the end of the 19th century respectively, when the principles of modern statehood and universal democracy were first established. Both works exude confidence, optimism, and a profound belief in mankind’s ability to create a better world.
