The programme
Calm Sea and Prosperous Voyage
Symphony No.9, ‘Choral’
The evening
The crowning glory of a genius
The combined forces of the Orchestra and Choir open this concert with Beethoven’s miniature masterpiece Calm Sea and Prosperous Voyage, before a cast of superstar soloists joins the Choir in the monumental Symphony No.9.
A powerful homage to brotherhood and freedom, the Ninth is a work of unfathomable genius, especially given Beethoven’s near-total deafness at the time of its creation.
