Composer, innovator, musical radical: Upcoming festival celebrates Beethoven’s 250th birthday in experimental style Dina Elsayed
This year marks 250 years since the birth of one of the most renowned composers of all time, Ludwig van Beethoven. Germany has poured 27 million euros into marking the occasion, and there are a number of events happening here in Berlin, including Labor Beethoven 2020, which is a contemporary reading of the work of Beethoven.
We spoke with Julia Gerlach, the head of music at the Akademie der Künste Berlin and the director of Labor Beethoven 2020, to find out more about some of the musical experimentation that has grown out of the celebration and how this benefits the composer’s legacy.
Labor Beethoven starts next Thursday, March 12 at the Akademie der Künste and runs through March 18. The music and compositions featured in this segment come from Werner Cee, Thanos Sakellaridis, and Manolis Ekmetsoglo.
