Was Beethoven Romantic?

Join us for a fascinating exploration into the life, music, and influence of one of history’s greatest composers – Ludwig van Beethoven.

This event delves beyond the notes on the page, offering insight into Beethoven’s personal story, his artistic journey, and the profound impact he had on the Romantic era and beyond.

Alongside biographical insights, including a look into the modern fascination with his love life, we’ll explore how his compositions shaped the evolving musical landscape.
