    Beethoven 2021

    The Beethoven year is to be extended (hopefully)!

    I'm still disappointed I didn't get to see Gardiner's cycle with the Orchestre Révolutionnaire et Romantique this month, but hopefully it is postponed sometime next year. I'm hoping I still get to see Zimerman perform the piano concertos at the end of the year.

    Also, hope everyone is doing well.

      Hi 'Hal9000',

      Me, too, I was supposed to travel to watch the Beethoven cycle with Gardiner.... Very frustrated that that has been cancelled. Hope revives with what you are saying.... any indications that that actually is the case and that they are planning on doing this next year?

        Hi Albert, unfortunately I don't really know.

        They say "postponement" in this tweet rather than "cancelled" which is encouraging.

        If you haven't already, the Monteverdi Choir and Orchestras youtube channel is posting weekly videos on Beethoven's symphonies. Their current video was on the Eroica. Link here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Io91...ature=youtu.be

        You can also listen to the 8th and 9th broadcast at Carnegie Hall earlier on this year here: https://www.wqxr.org/story/listen-be...et-romantique/

            New Tattoo

            I am determine to get something out of this anniversary year, so at long last, I made a start on my new Beethoven tattoo (my fourth). To be completed next month.

              Jan Caeyers - Beethoven

              Newly released in English for the first time. Definitely one for your bookshelf or Christmas list (did I really mention Christmas!).
