"Laugh, throw things on stage, and especially clap between the movements!" said Richard Egarr to the audience before giving the downbeat for his previous concert at Philzuid. It turned out to be a beautiful evening that we won't soon forget. This British early music specialist would prefer to be teleported with orchestra and all to Beethoven's time if he could. And that's precisely what he aims to achieve with this extraordinary concert programme.

Join Richard Egarr on a journey to a time when nobody blinked an eye at two symphonies and two arias on one concert evening. Soprano Elizabeth Watts, hailed by The Guardian as a "leading British soprano," is praised for her creamy timbre and mature empathy. Exciting opera music and two late masterpieces by the grandmasters of the classical era: Mozart and Beethoven.
