Eroica | Beethoven & Romanticism

Andris Nelsons, conductor

ALL-BEETHOVEN program
Symphony No. 1
Symphony No. 2
-Intermission-
Symphony No. 3, Eroica

Our exploration of Beethoven starts with his beginnings as an acolyte of Joseph Haydn and W.A. Mozart in his Symphony No. 1 in 1800. Beethoven revolutionized the symphony – and the language of music – through the startlingly innovative Second and Third (Eroica) symphonies which incorporated the heroic journey into symphonic form

Thursday evening’s concert is generously supported by Albert A. Holman III and Susan P. Stickells.

Pre-concert Talk
The January 10 performance will include a pre-concert talk starting at 12:15pm with former BSO Director of Program Publications Marc Mandel.
