Beethoven Festival
With the fine weather returning, Kent Nagano and the OSM head into a Beethoven week under full steam. In music of all-embracing depth and grandeur, the Beethoven Festival encompasses all nine symphonies, the rarely-heard Triple Concerto and the ballet score for The Creatures of Prometheus set to an original text by Yann Martel.
