Listen to it again: Pablo Heras-Casado conducts Beethoven milestones
Ludwig van Beethoven was represented on the memorable evening of the Opera Gala only by the dramatic scene «Ah! Perfido!», but the 150th birthday of the great composer of Viennese classical music was celebrated all the more festively on 7 August («Reason and Revolution»): Under the direction of Pablo Heras-Casado (pictured), guests were able to enjoy the Overture from «The Creatures of Prometheus», Opus 43, Symphony No. 3 in E flat major, «Eroica» Opus 61 and the Concerto for Violin and Orchestra in D major, Opus 55. Both the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen and Veronika Eberle (violin) were able to present to the audience a worthy tribute to the composer, who died in 1827.
