Beethoven and Romanticism
Apr 12 @ 7:00 PM – 9:00 PM

This special concert on the theme of Romanticism invites the audience members to discover two magnificent and historical spaces at the Morrin Centre as well as chamber music works composed by Beethoven, Schubert, and Ravel.

Saturday, April 12, 7 p.m.

This special concert on the theme of Romanticism invites the audience members to discover two magnificent and historical spaces at the Morrin Centre as well as chamber music works composed by Beethoven, Schubert, and Ravel.

The evening program will be presented in three parts and will feature 16 musicians of the Orchestre symphonique de Québec who will take turns performing in different chamber music ensemble combinations.

While a string trio will play in the Library, a septet will play in the College Hall, thus dividing the audience in two. Two texts from Quebec and Canadian poets will be read by actor Maureen Roberge. After the first part, every artist and audience member will meet in the College Hall where the evening will continue with performances by an octet, quartet, and septet, and the reading of Beethoven’s touching Letter to the Immortal Beloved (Brief an die Unsterbliche Geliebte, 1812). To round off the evening, the audience will once again be divided between the two spaces to listen to the other of the two programs performed at the beginning: the trio in the Library or the septet in College Hall.

During the evening, music director Clemens Schuldt will address the audience and present the theme of romanticism in Beethoven’s works.

PLEASE NOTE: The audience will not be seated during the concert in the Library, and will need to stay standing during this part of the performance (20 minutes).
