Repertory Ludwig van Beethoven: Symphony No. 7, Op. 92 Artists Ludovic Morlot, conducted by the Barcelona Symphony and Catalan National Orchestra (OBC) Programme Symphony No. 7 holds a singular place within the Beethovenian corpus. Premiered in 1813, it was described by Wagner as a "apotheosis of dance," a definition that points directly to its internal engine: rhythm as a structural and expressive force. From the initial poco sostenuto to the incandescent finale, Beethoven constructs a discourse of continuous tension, in which rhythmic repetition and variation generate a sense of inexorable advance. The sensation of a "force of destiny" is perceived, for example, in the allegretto: of processional and shadowy character, it offers a heavy counterpoint before the jubilant conclusion. This concert tasting allows focusing the listening on a single masterpiece, revealing its internal details and the persistent modernity of a symphony that, more than two centuries later, continues to transmit a primary and contagious energy. With the participation of Els Homes Clàssics de Catalunya Música. More information Concert "Orchestra Tasting: Beethoven's Seventh" on the L'Auditori website
