Beethoven: Symphony No 7 in A major
Berliner Philharmoniker
Kirill Petrenko, conductor
The Berliner Philharmoniker and its Music Director Designate Kirill Petrenko pair two of the 19th century鈥檚 greatest symphonic poems with Beethoven鈥檚 much-loved Seventh Symphony. If Don Juan celebrates the life of the body 鈥� energetic passions, desires and cynical ambitions 鈥� then the composer鈥檚 Death and Transfiguration, a vivid portrait of the last hours of a dying artist, explores ideas of the mind and spirit. These two colourful musical narratives are set against the dance-driven energy of Beethoven鈥檚 symphony.
