Opening concert of the Beethovenfest Bonn 2021, from the World Conference Center Bonn (WCCB), August 20, 2021

It’s an acoustic sensation: Beethoven's Ninth played on period instruments, and played to a score which has been revised to reflect the latest scholarly findings. In this spectacular opening concert of the 2021 Beethovenfest in Bonn, Germany, Jordi Savall and his musicians succeed in creating an extraordinary interpretation of the universally recognizable work. The Le Concert des Nations orchestra – renowned for its historical performance practice – strips Beethoven's Symphony No. 9 of any monumentality, instead infusing the well-known Beethoven symphony with a transparency and a lightness which render it a delicate gem. Even the final movement – with its otherwise deeply laden material – is woven through by the vocal soloists and the VOX BONA Chamber Choir of the Kreuzkirche Bonn to reveal the old masterpiece anew; resplendent in fresh musical garb.

That Ludwig van Beethoven's Symphony No. 9 can suddenly appear so distinctly different and – indeed! – new in this concert is due not least to the revised musical score. The musicians are playing the scholarly complete edition, published in 2020 by Beate Angelika Kraus. This is the German premiere of this version of Beethoven's Ninth.
