Teatro Miela - Project Beethoven: In the beginning was the Deed

Description

Introductory lecture by Letizia Michielon.

Op. 109 and Op. 111 represent a prodigious synthesis of Beethoven’s reflections on sonata form.
The reference to the famous monologue from Goethe’s *Faust* (“Im Anfang war die Tat!”, “In the beginning was the deed!”) captures the full innovative momentum contained in these works, whose completeness and complexity of vision challenge the entire trajectory of musical exploration pursued by Viennese Classicism.
The program is rounded out by two pieces inspired by the idea of sound-light, the secret thread running through a spiritual and epistemological quest that reaches beyond the limits of the human. The first is a tribute to Maria Zambrano’s *Dell’Aurora*; the second is dedicated to Schiller, Beethoven’s favorite author. 
The introductory lecture will be accompanied by the projection of several images  kindly provided by the Beethoven Library in Muggia.
