Laeiszhalle Hamburg Großer Saal
Beethoven's 1808 Academy Concert
Thomas Hengelbrock
Tickets from €12.00
In the Beethoven Anniversary Year of 2020, Thomas Hengelbrock and the Balthasar Neumann Ensembles focus their attention on a very special event: the »Academy«, as the concert was called, on 22 December 1808 in Vienna's Theater an der Wien, at which Beethoven gave the first performances of no fewer than four of his own works on a single evening. The internationally acclaimed Balthasar Neumann Ensembles and soloists under Hengelbrock's baton invite you to attend a faithful reconstruction of this memorable concert.
