The Foundation for the Revival of Classical Culture will present a 24-hour international celebration of the life of Beethoven on December 16, 2020, his 250 birthday, and we want you—and the whole world—to come to the party!! www.ffrcc.org
The name of Ludwig van Beethoven has over more than two centuries become nearly interchangeable with the Idea of Freedom all over the world. No matter what language is spoken, Beethoven’s music is understood wherever people struggle for something better, in themselves, in others, and in society. His music transcends all boundaries, defies categorization, and insists that nothing—not even deafness—can defeat a person in whom even Death is swallowed up in victory. As pianist Claudio Arrau once remarked, “in Beethoven, there is always a portrayal of the most noble of struggles. And in the end, he wins!”
Join us that day, starting at midnight, as we share greetings from around the world; video tributes of various types; and mostly, his glorious music, celebrating his mind, artistic vision, and mission. It will be live moderated with special guests, commentaries and rare recordings of Beethoven’s work.
