Beethoven-Marathon

The first marathon, which was organised in February 2008, displayed the Tchaikovsky’s works with huge success. After that, the similarly overwhelming success of the Dvořák marathon in 2009 was not a surprise. As the protagonist of the 2010 marathon, Iván Fischer chose one of the most popular composers of all time, Ludwig van Beethoven.

In the Béla Bartók National Concert Hall and in the Festival Theatre a total of eleven concerts will take place, each 45-minutes long. The symphony orchestra concerts will be at 10.30, 12.30, 14.30, 17.00, 19.00 and 21.00 in the Béla Bartók National Concert Hall, and the chamber orchestra concerts will be at 11.30, 13.30, 16.00, 18.00 and 20.00 in the Festival Theatre. The schedule allows for those who feel like it (and have the endurance for it) to listen to all eleven concerts. The concerts are supplemented by free video screenings and an exhibition from the Beethoven Museum of Bonn.


Within the context of the Workshop Discussion connected to the concert, prominent representatives of different types of art and other invited guests are talking about the programme. The discussion, which is presented by Gábor Fenyő, will take place on 3 February at 17.30, in the Stairway Hall of the Palace of Arts, which is furnished like a club.   The Workshop Discussions are open and the admission is free.
