The Hong Kong Sinfonietta and SingFest 2013 Festival Chorus in Beethoven and Brahms

Alan Yu, 17th August

Thursday December 22nd, 1808 was a bitterly cold day in Vienna. Beethoven took the stage in what was to be his last public performance as soloist with orchestra. The crammed programme lasted some four hours. Due to lack of rehearsal time, the evening didn’t go smoothly, with the final Choral Fantasy having to be stopped and started again.
