Concert information
Info
This season, our Berliner Philharmoniker Ensembles series is dedicated to Ludwig van Beethoven; 2027 marks the 200th anniversary of his death. Beethoven’s “Große Fuge” is a work of astonishing modernity and expressive power – qualities that many of his contemporaries found bewildering. Yet the work left a profound impression on the young Felix Mendelssohn: shortly after Beethoven’s death, the 18-year-old composed his Opus 13, in which he repeatedly alludes to the music of his great predecessor, including the Große Fuge. The programme opens with Beethoven in a lighter mood – with the Serenade in D major and the Duet with Two Obligato Eyeglasses.
