Juvenile Enthusiasm

Following their successful Elbphilharmonie debut with Sabine Meyer and Mozart’s clarinet concerto, Jan Caeyers and the orchestra he founded, Le Concert Olympique, are returning to the Elbphilharmonie. The renowned Beethoven specialist has set himself a special goal with the »Beethoven 27« project, which will run for several years: With 27 works from the pen of the great composer, he wants to build bridges to the 27 member states of the European Union. The second part of the series can be experienced at the Elbphilharmonie on 8 March 2025, featuring, among other works, Beethoven’s »Eroica« Symphony.

As a prelude to this, Beethoven’s first works in two orchestral genres will be performed – in Hamburg and at guest performances throughout Europe – because the Second Piano Concerto is actually also a first work (it was only printed as the second). And so this work in particular reveals a likeable impulsiveness and an exuberant wealth of ideas – youthful enthusiasm at the beginning of a new musical era.
