Vienna, 22 December 1808: in one marathon concert, Ludwig van Beethoven played and directed the first public performances of four of his most personal masterpieces. Beethoven’s “Academy” included not just the premieres of his Fifth and Sixth Symphonies, Fourth Piano Concerto and Choral Fantasy, but a range of vocal and keyboard works that showed every aspect of his genius as performer as well as creator. In this special three-part concert, Thomas Dausgaard and the BBC SSO recreate one of the most extraordinary nights in the history of music – with Jan Lisiecki taking Beethoven’s place at the keyboard, and three superb young singers performing music that still sounds new today. Unmissable.
