Description
The closing concert of the Democracy Music Festival puts the achievements of European humanism to the test: They are and have remained disputed since Beethoven’s lifetime. Ensemble Resonanz confronts Beethoven’s symphonic celebration of a hero, arisen from his enthusiasm for Napoleon, with today’s realities on Europe’s borders.
