About the Event

From its tragic opening to the climactic, world‐embracing Ode to Joy, Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony is no ordinary symphony—it’s a transformative emotional journey. Each performance is an extraordinary event, and tonight at Cadogan Hall, Conductor‐in‐Residence Adam Hickox and the RPO unite with the City of London Choir and an outstanding group of solo singers. They’re setting the atmosphere with two distinct yet equally captivating emotional expressions. Brahms, an admirer of Beethoven, offers Nänie, a poignant and soulful lament. Meanwhile, Rossini’s William Tell overture conjures a wild Romantic adventure even before reaching its renowned finale—delivering an entertaining tribute to Beethoven’s anniversary.
