Beethoven’s Ninth Unwrapped - Signed Version
Aurora Orchestra marks the 200th anniversary of this game changing Symphony with a memorised performance, featuring a dramatic exploration of the piece by Nicholas Collon.
To celebrate the 200th anniversary of this extraordinary piece, Aurora Orchestra take to the stage at the Royal Albert Hall with a signature memorised performance, led by conductor Nicholas Collon, as well as a dramatic exploration into the intricacies of the music and the maestro.
The masterpiece was composed in the midst of Beethoven’s hearing loss, illness and personal tragedy. In a Prom like no other, the orchestra will dissect and analyse the work, revealing its secrets and demystifying its majesty, before performing it entirely from memory.
Solo vocalists Masabane Cecilia Rangwanasha, Marta Fontanals-Simmons, Brenden Gunnell and Christopher Purves are joined by the ±«Óătv Singers and the National Youth Choir of Great Britain to form the chorus for the joyous final movement. Presented by Linton Stephens.
