The musical poem by Goethe and Beethoven finds a modern accent: a hymn to freedom
This great musical poem, born by an artistic complicity between Goethe and Beethoven, is an overwhelming hymn to freedom and to the bravery of its hero who's faithful to his ideals until death. A unique masterpiece gathering together musicians and actors in a projet that doesn't hesitate to use the most contemporary performance forms. A piece from the past that perfectly fits in our present shattered times.
