Christian Thielemann conducts Beethoven’s “Eroica”

The history of the symphony entered a new phase with Beethoven’s “Eroica”. The symphony was no longer just playing with themes and instruments, but rather dedicated to an idea – the idea of the heroic, which lends the work an incomparable dynamism. In addition to the symphony, conductor Christian Thielemann presents works by Franz Liszt and Hans Werner Henze that also follow poetic concepts, each in its own way.
