Programme:
Ludwig van BEETHOVEN – Missa solemnis

Ludwig van Beethoven composes his Missa solemnis during the period of his creative maturity. In the preface to the score, the author has inscribed: “From the heart — may it return to the heart!” In this composition, Beethoven explores new approaches to setting the liturgical text, and music critics acknowledge that his Missa solemnis rivals and even surpasses.

The concert is organised by the Cēsis Concert Hall
