Uniting the vocal and orchestral forces of which he is the artistic heart and soul, Philippe Herreweghe celebrates solidarity, with Beethoven’s symphony inspired by Schiller’s Ode to Joy and Austrian composer Hanns Eisler’s pacifist oratorio Against the War.
On May 7, the premiere of Ludwig van Beethoven's Ninth Symphony will mark its 200th anniversary. The Orchestre des Champs-Élysées and the Collegium Vocale Gent choir under Philippe Herreweghe will perform the work. Herreweghe places the symphony in a pacifist context alongside Hanns Eisler's "Gegen den Krieg."
Krzysztof Urbański, photo: Marco Borggreve Ludwig van Beethoven was regarded as a revolutionary (but also an eccentric) in his time, while for subsequent generations he became the epitome of the Classical (and, for many, of what was finest in music). The turbulent reception history of his monumental Symphony No. 9 in D minor proves that the significance of a work is never defined once and for all. It has fascinated not only musicians and listeners with different tastes, but also representatives of different political options and adherents of extreme ideologies. Along the way, it has encountered both nationalism and hope-giving universalism. Today, one of the themes of the Symphony’s finale, considered by some of Beethoven’s contemporaries to be a sign of extravagance, is one of the most recognisable melodies in Western musical culture and is known as the anthem of the European Union.
