A free preview of some of the music we’ll be playing in Beethoven: Hero/Rebel on 27 February. The two pieces in this concert, Beethoven’s Violin Concerto and ‘Eroica’ (Heroic) Symphony, date from the first decade of the 1800s. It was a time of turbulence both politically with the rise of Napoleon and in Beethoven’s life as he came to terms with the onset of deafness.
Our Community Open Rehearsals are open to everyone. They take place at Acland Burghley School in Tufnell Park, where the OAE is based – the nearest tube station is Tufnell Park on the Northern Line (usually less than 10 minutes from Euston or King’s Cross). We’d like anyone to feel able and comfortable to attend these events. We’re always happy to answer any questions you have – please email us if we can help.
It’s free to attend – but please register so we know how much tea to make!
