Melbourne Chamber Orchestra Beethoven 250 Gippsland Tour

Same composer, same five instruments, two completely different moods. MCO completes its 250th anniversary homage to Beethoven with both of Beethoven’s String Quintets.

The C minor quintet finds Beethoven in his favourite, Symphony No 5-esque stormy key, for an epic transcription of his first piano trio. The contrasting C major trio is young Beethoven at his sunniest, charming best.

A brilliant quintet of MCO musicians is led by MCO’s Artistic Director, William Hennessy AM.

This free performance will also be live-streamed through the Melbourne Digital Concert Hall Series.
