Beethoven Birthday Bash (February 5-7, 2021)

February 5, 2021 - February 7, 2021

Join the Bloomington Symphony Orchestra in a (slightly belated) celebration of Beethoven’s 250th birthday – TICKETS STILL AVAILABLE!

Though we’d originally hoped to perform this concert for a live audience, that was not practical under recent and current conditions. Instead, musicians were socially-distanced, and, for the first time ever, were positioned throughout the auditorium itself, rather than onstage. The BSO recorded this performance of Beethoven’s iconic Fifth Symphony in partnership with the Buskirk-Chumley Theater.

Friday, February 5th @ 7:00 pm – Live Beethoven Q&A*
Saturday, February 6th @ 7:00 pm – Beethoven’s 5th Symphony! (available for an additional 24 hours after the initial broadcast)

*For those who want to dig deeper, we’ve added a live Q&A between BSO Artistic Director Alejandro Gómez Guillén and violinist/musicologist Christine Wisch as they tackle your questions and share insights about Beethoven’s music and the BSO’s recording process.

If you bought an $18 ticket, you should have already received the zoom link for this event, exclusively for Concert+ Q&A ticket holders.

Tickets are still available for the Concert + Q&A or just the Concert itself on the BCT’s website.

And don’t worry, If you already purchased tickets back in March 2020, they’re still valid for our on-demand presentation, including the Q&A and you should have received an email with information about access.

We want this to be something we can all enjoy and be proud of. Rest assured that it will be a concert performance like none you’ve ever seen from the BSO.
