Ludwig van Beethoven: a musical revelation for Hector Berlioz.

The French composer studied his symphonies, his late string quartets and piano sonatas, as he was fascinated by the inherent drama in Beethoven’s compositions. A prime example of this flair for the dramatic is the Symphony N° 8, which immediately begins with its climax. Does Berlioz have the same sense of drama? Find out for yourself on 03.04. with his songs collection Les Nuits d’été.



The concert will be recorded by radio 100,7 and broadcast on 04.06.2025.
