Summer Sounds final concert: Dancing with Ludwig

Time: Sunday 30.6.2019 at 18.00
Place: Avanti Hall, Art Factory

Chamber Orchestra Avanti!

When composer Brett Dean was reading the famous Heiligenstadt Testament written by Beethoven, he was struck by a haunting sonic idea that was the sound of Ludwig’s imagined quill writing manically on leaves of parchment paper. Based on this vision, Dean created the piece that was titled Testament. The composition is the second piece by Dean inspired by Beethoven. The folkloristic piece Concert Romanesc by György Ligeti will culminate the folk theme for this year’s Summer Sounds 2019. Ludwig van Beethoven’s third symphony “Eroica” will be the grand finale for the festival.

Programme:
Brett Dean: Testament
György Ligeti: Concert Românesc (Andantino – Allegro vivace – Adagio ma non troppo – Molto vivace)

***

Ludwig van Beethoven: Symphony nro 3, op. 55 ”Eroica” (Allegro con brio – Marcia funebre: Adagio assai – Scherzo: Allegro vivace – Trio – Finale: Allegro molto)

Please note that the concert will end with the Beethoven’s Symphony number 3 “Eroica”, not number six as announced earlier!

Tickets: 40€/ 32€/ 20€ + service fee

The festival bus to Helsinki will leave approximately at 20.30 or 15 minutes after the end of the concert.
