Scottish Chamber Orchestra Season 2008/09 The Legend of Prometheus
Friday 19th December 2008, 7.30pm
City Halls : Grand Hall
Compared with Haydn, Schubert and Mozart, Beethoven was quite a late starter at writing symphonies – he waited until he was into his 30s.
Before then he honed his skills on concertos, cantatas and theatre music.
The Prometheus ballet is as charming as it is substantial – containing all kinds of intriguing pointers to the future, not least the first appearance of a tune that later became famous in the ‘Eroica’ Symphony.
