Beethoven’s symphonic revolution takes centre stage in an evening charting the composer’s astonishing artistic evolution. His First Symphony sparkles with wit, elegance and classical vitality, already hinting at the boldness to come. Towering over the programme is the monumental ‘Eroica’ Symphony — a work that shattered convention and transformed the symphonic form forever through its scale, emotional force, and visionary ambition.
