The Seventh is Beethoven’s most fascinating symphony – a work whose new vision of rhythm’s relationship with harmony produced the most physical, compelling music that had ever been created. Beethoven wasn’t just exploring new techniques, he was giving voice to a wave of joy that had swept into his life and filled him with determination and optimism.

Before it, we hear Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 20 in D minor which sees the composer begin his transformation of the piano concerto from entertaining diversion to engrossing narrative experience, and a new work celebrating the Orchestra’s 25th birthday by the nation’s favourite composer, John Rutter.

Marios Papadopoulos is conductor and soloist for this visit to Cadogan Hall in celebration of the Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra’s Silver Jubilee Year.

Duration: approx. 1 hour 50 mins (incl. Interval)
